Can anyone see David and his parents (possibly Algernon & Grace m 1921) in 1939?

Looking at details on family trees, someone matching Algernon is in Cambridge and someone matching Grace, is in Mitcham. David still blanked out.

In 1939 they are as posted by DCB, Grace in Mitcham at the address below.

Algernon Reginald Ellis 1939 Electoral Register at 58 Ceasers Walk, Mitcham but he is elsewhere on the 1939 Register.

Thanks for the info. I found a probate record (1967) showing Algernon Ellis died 25 November 1966, living in Cambridge, probate to Grace Ellis, widow. Pity it didn't mention David Ellis.

Then found Grace Ellis died 9 December 1976. probate, but still no mention of David.

Well done.
That's interesting. I lived in Maids Causeway with mates when I was at college .... long time ago.

I think we can put David 'to Bed', thank you all for helping.
