Do you know his parents names?

There's this entry on familysearch https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWMJ-LZC

The GRO Index has this birth:
Norman Francis Henry Purvis, March Q 1905 Tynemouth, 10b 318, mother's maiden name BENNETT.

FreeBMD has a marriage of a John William Purvis to Emily Bennett, June Q 1896, Tynemouth, 10b 436.

We are not allowed to do 1911 look ups, but with the parents names it should not be hard to find him  ;)

(Recognising this is probably too late to be useful...) He was my paternal grandfather, and there's a detailed, referenced profile for him at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Purvis-2239
