What was his full middle name?
What else do you know about him? There is no death for him up to 2007 so do you know whether he died after that year?
-
They are showing on the 1939 register living in Prestwich. Ancestry has Thomas' year of birth incorrect. As his record isn't locked I guess he is probably deceased
-
A Thomas Edward Kendall died in 2012 as per probate register
There is a 1996 death for a Thomas Eyre Kendall in Fylde but his birthdate was December 1926

What sort of information are you seeking?
-
possibility
Death: 7 Aug 1986 Holy Trinity, Horwich, Lancashire, England
Thomas Kendal -
Age: 62
Abode: 209 Lee Lane Horwich
-
There is a very likely Thomas in Horwich in 1939 indexes.
-
That Thomas was b 10.11.1923 as per Aug 1986 death reg
There is no death post 1969 with a birthdate of 22.5.1926
Brian - unfortunately none of the info given in your reply helps to find him post 1939. We need to know whether he married, where he lived etc etc
He appears to have been their only child. You incorrectly show father as Thomas Leonard Kendall in your reply. He was Leonard Witlam Kendall

Sorry, this was in reply to lancann’s post and I was trying to say that the Horwich one wouldn’t be the one we are searching.
-
Thomas Edward Kendall b 22.5.1926 is with parents Leonard & Alice in Prestwich as per earlier replies. His entry is visible suggesting he has died. Therein lies the problem.
Possible death in 1963 for his mother but a definite death in 1970 for his father. No probate entry
I would suggest buying a copy of the 1970 death cert to see who reported the death but it may prove to be a waste of money if it was someone other than the son Thomas.
My only other theory is that he emigrated after 1970???
-
Leonard Witlam Kendall died on 22 Mar 1970 in Prestwich Manchester.
His will wasn't proved till 30 Mar 1981,suggesting some sort of problem with who he left the money to?

I am sure you are pleased that his death has been found. It’s such a good find by Carol.
You can get the death certificate now to see who reported the death and perhaps search for an obituary.
-
Your opening post asked for “any info” and did not specify you were only looking for a marriage. A great deal of time and effort has been given to track down his death as until that was established - no info could be posted about him
If that’s all you are looking for - you could check freebmd for that information or buy a copy of his death cert to see who reported his death.
You could also use Google to see if there were any obits for him given he died less than 12 months ago

Looking for any Information on Thomas E Kendall dob 22 May 1926 born Manchester,
Sorry that I 'only' managed to find his death,when i read your post which says " looking for any informantion"...I thought you wanted ANY information,not just whether he married or not.
As others have said best to obtain his death cert and see who reprted his death,at least it will give you an address if where he died and you might be able to trace back family from there.
Regards
Carol (still very chuffed that I managed to find such a recent death at all ;D )

There are 3 possible marriages,but without the cert who knows?
The Fylde one is looking promising if he stayed up north,but a lot born in the 1920's who served in WW2 could have easily met and married abroad.
Marriages Mar 1945
Kendall Thomas E Wilson Bromley 2a 1620
Marriages Dec 1962
KENDALL Thomas E BENTLEY Fylde 10c 507
Marriages Mar 1977
KENDALL THOMAS E SWAINE SOUTHWARK 15 46
Using https://www.freebmd.org.uk/ you will see that there are 2 female births after that marriage in the 1960's.

There is a 1996 death for a Thomas Eyre Kendall in Fylde but his birthdate was December 1926
Think this is the Fylde one.
Hopefully Brian will come back and comment re the death which he may have been aware of but hasn’t mentioned.
It looks as though Thomas died in the same area as his parents. Maybe electoral rolls would show whether there was a.n.other in the household but of course the address would be needed. Hopefully the death certificate would show that unless it was a hospital/care home etc.

Ah thanks Heywood,never thought to follow him through (well actually had to go off and do something else!) but yes I would say that isn't 'our' chap. 8)

I assume Brian as he only died recently and you did not know him that he is not a close relative. Is there no-one in your family who might have known him whom you could ask

The Thomas E Kendall whose birth was registered January qtr 1927 which would match with a December 1926 birth was the son of Leslie E R Kendall and Althea Fulcher.
Leslie E R Kendall's birth was registered Mar qtr 1892
Leslie Eyre R Kendall
Norwich 4b 181
I think it is fair to assume that Thomas Eyre Kendall was his son.
