OK then - I believe the only full index available for consultation in Wales is at Bridgend Reference & Information Library, but do check in case that information is out of date.

Edit: a more recent name may be Bridgend (or Ty’r Ardd) Local & Family History Centre ???

1939 Register for DoB then using his age to find his death?

You won’t find his entry on the 1939 Register if (as it appears) he has been alive until recently - it will have been redacted.

Yes avm, you're right but from the marriage date & anyone who's not redacted it may be easy to work out a rough date?

We know his birth was registered in 1921 and he married for the first time in 1943.

I have found his birth family and he isn’t with them in 1939 (assuming the children are in date order, which they seem to be) - the only redacted one is a younger sister.

Hi,

Are you sure that the John J W THORNE born in 1921 in West Ham is the right one? I ask because I found this marriage which would also fit that gentleman,

John J W THORNE    Sep Q 1944    Brentford    3a  747 
Annie G COUSINS

I can't see any obvious children for this couple, but of course she could have been divorced and their children would be under her maiden name.


Do you have John and Valerie's marriage cert. to see what his occupation was, his father's name and possibly his age?

Sorry for asking so many questions but I think it's better to be sure rather than follow the wrong family.

Regards,
Daisy

This Brentford one was (or claimed to have been) born 5 Jan 1874, and was already with the widowed Annie “Couzens” in 1939, five years or so before their marriage.

His likely death: Mar qtr 1955 Ealing, aged 81.

The associated probate record shows his full name as John Jacob William Thorne.
