	Glitter Baby, and Yvonne, Well done and thank you so much. I had not seen that death in 1950, and had ruled out the date , as being too late, but the name and address tallys up, so that is that sorted. Again many thanks. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) Sue

	P.S. With the date of birth have just found him in 1901 and 1911 census, living at 26 Fisher Road, Newton Abbot. So that sorts his date of birth and place of birth. Brilliant. Thank you all
