Also any knowledge of closest relatives and family friends to trace more information about Ronald. His mother's maiden name was Elizabeth Clasper and his father was Thomas A. Drackford, born London 1906.

No sign of a marriage......so no legitimate descendants

Several GR members appear to be researching Drackfords as per the census info.

Look in 'search all trees', and send a contact message - or several
