William Jhon Marsh 1922-1969.(Top right) Possible date? Restore
« on: Thursday 02 May 24 09:19 BST (UK) »
Would be interested if anyone could recognise the uniform? Merchant navy has been mentioned but he died when my mother was 6. Could anything be done to the photo to improve quality? Thank you.

A try from me, can't help with Services I.D. but guess at year early 1940's, regards, John.

Does it say anything useful for occupation on his marriage certificate? Or your mother’s birth certificate?
