Hi
Find a Grave has birthdate as19th February 1908'
I see he was a Brother of the Catholic Church.
There is  an entry for the death of a Joseph Beckhaus which mentions a son Leonard (Christian Brother ) and other children

Hi,

There is a military record for him here,

https://www.rootschat.com/links/01sk1/

It gives his DOB as 19th February 1908 but his name is Leonard Joseph BECKHOUSE.
POB Somerset Strand, South Africa
Father  Joseph BECKHOUSE

It might be worth searching this site more, there are lots of variations of the name BECKHAUS there.

Regards,
Daisy

Actually, pretty sure the sister died in 1997.

Sister on the death notice: Mrs Isabella JARMAN.

An Isabel BECKHOUSE married Thomas JARMAN registered in Sutherland in 1927. (2875/1927 )
They can be found on various electoral rolls together (as Thomas and Isabella Jospehine).

Isabella Josephine JARMAN died March 1997

Thomas Albert William JARMAN died 10 Aug 1974 (death notice confirms his wife was Isabella).

These link to the 1951 death notice of Jospeh BECKHAUS.
