This site www.wamarriage.info/ gives fairly recent marriages in W.A. ... up to about 1970.

But I think it is currently having problems .. :(

Hi,

From Cupoflife's post,  I can see Richard was known by his middle name, Roy and he had a fiancee.   See the notice  for J.M. GODFREY in the West Australian 27 Dec 1945.
Loved father of my darling finance, Roy (RAAF missing) .......

Cheers,  JM
