Normally it is best to keep all the information on one person together on the same thread to save duplication and so that everyone is aware of what has already been found.

Your very welcome Friar Tuck, pleased to have helped. Maybe someone else can find a little more for you. Not sure about the availability of military records for WW2 ???
Perhaps this link would help if you wanted to go further.

Hello, I realize this thread is old, but I have a little information on LAC Harold Simmerson. I am his Great Niece. I know Uncle Harold move to Brittain after the war to Marry. His occupation was listed as painter, but he worked for the Royal Mail until his retirement. If you would like to ask anything, I can try to answer. We kept in touch until his passing, and he did visit with us here in Canada over the years.

Hi FireWoman,
Welcome to RootsChat
Sadly Friar Tuck hasn't been back online since July 2012. If you make 1 more post you would be able to use the personal message system and try sending Friar Tuck a personal message which they may pick up.
Hope you enjoy the site. Give a shout if we can help.
Regards
Sandra ;)

I would love to connect with Firewoman to learn more about Harold Simmerson’s life up until his first marriage, after his first marriage, travelling back to Canada and then back to the UK and then his life until his second marriage.
I saw he passed away in Bournemouth and would like to explore more about his life after retirement.
I have found records about parts of his life, but would love to know more. Thanks.

Sadly Firewoman has not been online since November 2018. They may have the email notifications turned off. I'm sure Sarah (Owner/Moderator) will be able to tell you.

I have asked Sarah to take a look for you. Sometimes people join and just make one post and never return. Sarah should be able to tell you if they are receiving email notifications from the thread.
Sorry I can't help further with WW2 info

Thanks for your help Sandra!

Hello!
Would anyone know how I can find out the exact date of death for Harold Simmerson (information in the messages above). I have the month and year through Ancestry documents and the above detail.
Thanks in advance!

Can't see any death notice for Harold at the moment. This is not what you asked for either but just in case you haven't come across it - the death notice for Aladia Janice Kuys Simmerson (Raubenheimer)

The three children named were all born Bath - 1968 - 1970 - 1971 (a son and 2 daughters - the son may still live in Bath, he seems to show on electoral registers in the early 2000 era)
