I must admit that it sounds like Jim when said with some accents. Have to looked for births for a James Strudwick in the area, It is a reasonably unusual surname

How old was Jum then?
If he was of voting age, he might be listed in old electoral lists.

If you'd like to post their mother's maiden name here ( or pm if you wish ) it might be possible to work out his name if you've some idea of birth year and possible place.

I'm sorry that I haven't found a definite registration for your father's birth.
I can confirm that records show a marriage in Poplar district in December quarter of 1934, between a George W.STRUDWICK and Ida PAVELIN.
A copy of the certificate would show his father's name ( and possibly any middle name ) and young George's age which would hopefully help find the correct birth in the index.

I am jumping from thread to thread following your posts.

Someone has found a passenger list containing Alfred.
It looks as if he was married.
If you go to ...Search Trees,,, someone has the couple in their tree on GR.
Hopefully they can help you.

Good luck

Gwyn
