There's an obit here for Doris Willmott Bearne who died 1962 aged 57 at Ridgewood, NY. It says her husband, a WW1 British Army veteran died Sept. 1955. Trouble is his name was Leonard Gerald Bearne. She is survived by son Leonard Gerald Bearne Jr. and a brother Cyril Willmott.

Thanks all i have that info but still cant find about his death,
regards Derrick :-)

You could try searching for relatives here

http://www.whitepages.com/

There is a probable match for the son in Florida

But on that 1930 census it says that they all emigrated 1905. A different Leonard Bearne? The one who married Doris Willmott was Leonard Gerald Bearne according to Doris"s obit.

thanks all,
this is the len iwas looking for i dont now why his name changed from joseph bearne to a george bearne , but his fathers name was george and he died in 1912 .but the info on Doris matches with all the usa census 1930 1940,and that
she worked for a newspaper in new york his son died in 2004 so i will be looking for any info on him marrage children etc so any help would be great,
thanks again all for your help,. derrick

Hello Derrick - do you know your Leonard's exact birthdate? That might help us establish if Leonard Joseph Bearne and Leonard Gerald Bearne were two different people.
