Was he an ex POW?
There is a piece titled "Funeral of German Ex POW in Bury."
He was present at the funeral for a friend who had died, an ex POW who had been employed at  North Farm Barnham.
23rd July 1948

He was also briefly mentioned in as having had a slight accident by being knelt on by a bull!
That was in 1952 at Home Farm, Euston.

Edwin Emil R Odebrecht (dob 19/4/1926 according to death reg) doesn't pop up with that spelling on Ancestry German records. 

Searching the surname only, no dob, in Germany brings up a number of Odebrecht names.

You may have to get the marriage cert for Father's name/occupation to get a better clue where to look.
