Royce/Morling missing

[EdCan]

John David Royce birth was registered 1918 Braintree, Essex. His parents were John Royce(1886-1954) and Bertha Annie Rush(1892-1970). Victoria Mary Morling birth was registered 1919 Romford, Essex. Her parents were William James Morling(1881-1920) and Lizzie Ethel Shelley(1883-1968). John and Victoria married 1950 Ilford and that is the last record that I can find for them.

1950 ? Very few records you could find that are available after 1950...maybe check for any birth registrations, baptism records or in directories

2002 possibly for Victoria's death? www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/victoria-royce-obituary?pid=122451211

Not sure how you could access this to confirm further details. Maybe check on the Australia Board.

As iluleah suggests, check births following their marriage. I can see at least one likely son in 1954 www.freebmd.org.uk
