Ancestry doesn't have the 1939 register; it's on FindMyPast.

Sorry, your message #35 suggests you couldn't find him on the 1939 having joined Ancestry.

I don't know if this is useful or not but Doris was baptised 23 Apr 1925 at Holy Trinity, South Hetton, daughter of Wilfred (engineman) and Ellen Smith, their address was 28 Forster Street, from Durham Records Online.

Hi

When you meet your  sister will she be bringing the marriage certificate ? If you could get a copy or a sample of his signature you could compare it to army records that are available to you. Try and narrow him down that way.

Try familysearch - you may get lucky. There are some census on there. Plus if that death record for 1975 is correct that gave a DoB you could put that in the search box looking for a Wilfred that may have been born over there.
Also if you have a sub with Anc* try the incoming passenger lists. See if Wilfred crops up on a list - he may be American.
