Thanks everyone for your kind replies.  This side of my family had a lot of issues etc, so there is very little to go on.  It never occurred to me he might be older than I thought, or married previously.  I think some help would be his Marriage Certificate, and I can go from there.  I'll do a bit of digging and keep everyone posted.

As he's your Uncle you know his father's name but you might get a better
DOB from his age at marriage.

Maybe uncle by marriage
Until I started tracing family history, I did not know the fathers of the husbands of my parents sisters, particularly my father's sisters, one had a very common name and the other always used his second forename.

Good point maybe the poster can give us his name anyway.

I've ordered a Marriage Certificate.  And I have found the Death record you mentioned giving his DOB as 1920. 

Is your question directed as me? Whose name do you want?

Sorry I have no idea, which is why I've ordered a Marriage Certificate.  Once that's arrived I will be back with further info.

There's a 1963 marriage for an Alexander Hannah in B'ham.
Alexander HANNAH    BIRMINGHAM    9C   710.
They appear in the 1965 ER's in Rookery Rd. B'ham.
Previous sightings has an Alexander Hannah living on the Stratford Rd. in 1950 in lodgings
& in 1930 again on the Stratford Rd. with a Mary Hannah.
Re the last sighting:
To appear on the ER's he would have to be over 21 so born 1909 at the latest.

This info seems to be what I'm looking for thanks. 

I have now received the Marriage Certificate of Alexander Hannah which states his previous marriage was dissolved.  He was aged 43 on 18 May 1963 living in Rookery Road, Handsworth.  His Father was John McLean Hannah (deceased) who was a Railway Engine Driver. 

So the Cumberland Alexander is definitely not the one I'm looking for. 

I just need to locate the ERs you mentioned for the info.
