My great grandfather is not with his wife and children in the register, he was 48 by then and I have searched high and low, using his DOB, name variants etc, either he has been grossly mistranscribed or was abroad at the time. Born in 1891 so would not be redacted as he died in 1968. If he did "dodge" the register, then yes, he would not have an ID card so why dodge it?
