Given the area I think the above 1901 census is unlikely.

The age on the 1939 register is transcribed wrongly- his year of birth is given as 1891 (not 1897).

Death Age: 83
Birth Date: 11 Jun 1891
Registration Date: Mar 1975
Registration district: Walsall
Inferred County: West Midlands
Volume: 34
Page: 0465

Probate:
John Peace of 24 Green Lane, Walsall Wood West Midlands died 18 January 1975 Probate Birmingham 23 April £1386

Possible Baptism:

Thank you everyone. I think I have found my mother's brother and his wife and they seem to still be alive: John Peace and Mavis Peace, living in Walsall.

Trouble is they are ex-directory and the phone company will not disclose their number or address to me. Any idea how to get round this one? I'd really appreciate your suggestions. I'm getting to close now.

They're on the current Electoral Roll for Walsall.

You'll have to buy credits to see the full address.
