I dont think any info would be on Ancestry as its too late for census records etc.

Does the informant give any clues or his address at the time he died. There were no electoral rolls in WW2 so you cant view those plus I think you need an address anyway to look up electoral rolls. You may be able to find how long he was at his current address before he passed but these would be held at the local main library of the area

Hi everyone, I'm desperately trying to find info about my g grandad who was estranged from the family since around 1940. I have a death certificate, died 1965 Northumberland South, but no idea where he was between 1940-1965. Is there a way of looking up people in old residential books or things similar to that? He had 8 children and none of them knew him, or even knew when he died. Been to probate office today and it looks as though he didnt make a will.Totally and utterly STUMPED. Any help appreciated! Jo :-)
