:-D

FreeBMD does tend to stop in the 1950's. When the volunteer transcribers have finished, eventually it will reach the 1980s If you can't find subsequent marriages, deaths or children for them, come back to the thread.

See if anyone else has them listed on their trees and send messages. Although GR's T&C state that you shouldn't add a living person to your own without their permission, there is nothing to stop you recording them on an off-line version.

You should be able to find if he had siblings by looking on FreeBMD using the surname combination
