Well thank you Cath as that really has helped solve the mystery.

I've found what I was looking for now thanks to Rosie99. She suggested the telephone directories for that period and Surrey rather than where I had tried. It worked and I found the family home etc. It's still standing and I've even got the old telephone number  plus the years they lived there.  I'm now able to search on Facebook for the schools in that area to see if there's any school pictures she might appear in as an infant or in high school.

The information I have has come from the lady in question who's in her 80s. She's said that they lived in Kingsway, Wimbledon, London so I have no reason to think it's not true, however time and memory may have distorted the full truth as I haven't found anything at all which backs up this information.  It's interesting to note that Rosie99 has found a possible in Surrey for that period.  I'll check that out as you have to follow all leads.

You are all correct, except that they were in Wimbledon in 1940s through to 1962 when they move to a village near Swansea.  I've tried everything I can think of via ancestry and can find absolutely nothing about them during that time frame.  I'm beginning to think they used false names.

How can I find Tom Gundy in Wimbledon during the 1940s -1960s. I've tried the electoral register but can't find him or his wife Sophie. Where am I going wrong? Or could my information about the area be wrong?
