I think this is my Grandfather, seem to remember his middle name Charles - he married a Gertrude Partridge

You can check the GRO index on freebmd to see if the Percy that married Gertrude had a middle name https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

The Percy does give the middle name Charles  but when I checked earlier and put in Gertrude there was no record.

Using freebmd I just selected Marriages - no dates or places
Surname Partridge
Spouse Kidman
It brought up 3 results your couple being one of them  ;)

No need to feel silly, sometimes these search engines are better with less information especially when you have more unusual names.

James Julian Kidman
Death 6 Apr 1920
Death Cambridgeshire
Probate Date 25 Jun 1920
The probate index gives a bit more detail as to his executors

Select the period for 1920 wills before putting in surname & year on the probate site (Example below)
