Thanks again to everybody!
Jim1 -  Soldiers effects for this man is the first one I've found where there is no next of kin or legatee mentioned.  The Aunt's address is from his Medal Index Card!
Spider monkey, and Karenlee, I'll start a proper search now that I have something to 'attach him to'.  Will report back when I've had a good look round. 
Great support team, thank you all!!

Can't see any hint that Harry belongs to Martha Joslin.  Martha marries firstly to Alfred Sams and then to Charles Sharp.

There are 2 Harry Dean's on the B'ham AV list but as we don't know when he died I can't say if either are him or not.

I think on the Soldier's Effects register, he was part of the 11th (service) Battalion.

That's right - I'm working back from being KIA; just need a family to attach him to!

I'm not sure if you missed this or not.
From Dawnsh:
Quote
Mrs G Wiggins, according to etiquette, would be using her husbands initial

A George & Eliza Wiggins are at 6 Earth Pit Row, Shoebury circa 1920

Might not be your couple though
6 Earth Pit Row is the address given on the MIC.
