I have found them on FB so have messaged them on there. I'll see if I get any replys over the weekend if not I will write to them as you suggest.

Under the obituary there are some messages.

One, with unusual surname mentions friends Jean and Giri.

They are listed with fairly recent date on Electoral Rolls to be found on this site by going to Search... in top right corner.

Maybe a letter to them would help put you in touch with family ?

He married twice - both times in Salisbury reg district.
1959 and 1968.

He had two sons from his first marriage, both registered in Salisbury.

You can work out their names on FreeBMD:
https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Unfortunately, their names are not unusual enough to allow definite identification on Electoral Rolls

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

I can’t see Harry in Search/ search all members trees. Googling his name I found an undertakers notice of a death in Wimborne in 2018. Donations were listed and there were some names.
Follow his marriage and possible children through FreeBMD. Then use the Electoral Roll, or contact the undertakers O’Hara’s of Wimborne to see if they would pass a message on.

I have loads of this families photos from 1930's I would like to pass on. I found them in my mum's property, she was Harry's aunt.
