Welcome to rootschat 

Do you know if this is William J Ryder's death, as you can then look for him in 1911 if is it him?

William James Ryder
Died age 76 in April quarter 1987 in Plymouth 
Born 17 May 1910

There are other William (J) Ryder's in the same area, and this family does not seem to be Irish on a quick census search, so you need some dates.

If it is the correct William James then his baptism was at Parish of Charles, Plymouth
Born 17 May 1910
Bapt 1st June 1910
William James
parents William James & Daisy Annie Ryder
abode -40 Frankfort Street
Fathers occ -Stoker R.N

I'm pretty sure it is. I have been doing some research, and a number of ryders served with the connaught rangers. If he did, somehow, it would explain his Irish accent and fondness for the music, culture of Ireland etc. I feel I'm so close now! The game is afoot...☺
