Did you have any contact with any cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents or did he totally cut off the German side of the family?

Do you have a copy of the 1951 marriage certificate as that may give information on his father.

I agree that this is the first document I'd try to obtain, as it should show father's name and occupation.

I cannot currently see a wedding for a Friedrich Wilhelm Marschall in 1951, although the death reference is there.

Have you found a marriage?
