What was the result of contacting the tree owner from this post of 3 years ago?

You really do need to stop assuming that every Arthur Walker is the one you are looking for.

There's an Arthur T. Walker registered 1919 Birmingham (mother Nixon) who is more likely to be the one travelling to San Pedro, California in 1945-

You said nothing to nobody..

Nor did you chase it (the names in the myheritage tree)  up in the records.
You were pointed to  a late 1960s marriage in Durham? Did you buy and eliminate that way?


You've also no idea of which potential Arthur's may be yours until you purchase the birth certificate. 
Quit the chase until there is a birth date.

I have not read your other lengthy thread on this family so forgive me if you have already posted this somewhere else.

Where are Arthur Walkers parents and younger siblings in 1939.

His birth reg is easily found on freebmd so why are you wasting time pursuing Arthur Walker's with middle names when it's clear - as Annette has said - he had no middle names?

You cannot just "claim" an entry because his first name is Arthur & his surname is Walker. The details you quote in your opening post have nothing to connect them to your Arthur.  Ancestry "hints" are just that - "hints"  not necessarily "facts"

If you are so keen to establish his whereabouts - do as has been suggested.  Buy a copy of the 1920 birth cert to get his exact birthdate then look for him on the 1939 register & in the death registrations

Sorry, what shows this information

ADDED I see now you are talking about Arthur Edward Michael Walker date of birth 17th December 1921, Birmingham.

Have you seen the document you have linked to or are you just assuming this is your great auntie Violet
