I believe Ivor was the son of Harold Grant Morgan who lived in South Africa during his youth. Harold was the son of Leopold Randall Morgan and Beatrice Grant who certainly died in South Africa in the 1940s. Harold was born about 1910/1911. After the second world war nothing more is know by the family and what happened after Leopold and his wife died to either Harold and his son who it is believed was called Ivor. Leopold was born in Croydon, Surrey, England and married Beatrice Grant whose sister married Leopold's brother also called Harold. We do not know if Harold and his son Ivor stayed in South Africa or moved to another country.
Any info would be very helpful

Sorry I did mean Leopold Reynolds Morgan. I do have this info about Leopold, Beatrice and Harold but after 1944 I know nothing more about Harold and his son who I think was called Ivor. I have searched the ancestor.za site but nothing has shown up so wonder if he moved from South Africa after this date. English relatives do not know any more than this.
Thanks for all your help
