I think empire parade as where shops where and Henrys sister Kitty or maybe Florence ran a café family may well have been well known in that area

The address given would have been Henry's address (not necessarily his father's address)

What was his father's occupation (was he a bricklayer?)

Who were the witnesses?

So, as was previously put, this is likely Henry F in 1911 with his family:

1911 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
3 Lawrence Avenue St Marks Bristol, Bristol, Gloucestershire, England
Herbert Stock Head Married Male Bricklayer 37 1874 Somerset
Florence Stock Wife Married Female - 35 1876 Bedminster Somerset
George Stock Son Single Male Builder's Labourer 17 1894 Ashley Dr Gloster
William Stock Son - Male School 11 1900 Bishopston Gloster
Herbert Stock Son - Male School 9 1902 Horfield Gloster
Florence Stock Daughter - Female School 7 1904 Ashley Dr Gloster
Henry Stock Son - Male - 2 1909 Nailsea Somerset
--------------------------------------------------------

Bearing in mind the address, and your mention of a cafe- I think this is Henry's brother, Herbert, in 1939:

Briggs Household 238 Kingston Road , Maldon and Coombe M.B., Surrey, England

Herbert R Stock 18 Apr 1901 Male Canteen Caterer Widowed
Beatrice R Briggs 11 Apr 1897 Female Caterer Widowed
Frederick R Newby 25 Apr 1897 Male - Single
Kenneth E Sutton 01 Sep 1915 Male Bridge Erector -

(there are a couple of articles in the paper re Beatrice who is described as a dining room proprietress)
--------------------------------------------------

Herbert (Henry's brother) died in 1947:

England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations)

STOCK Herbert Reginald of 238 Kingston Road, New Malden, Surrey died 12 April 1947 Administration London 13 June to Herbert David George Stock draughtsman.

In your thread on military chat you raise a doubt that Henry ever came back from WW2? It would be better to post on here & delete the other thread.

This is Henry's parents in 1939: an explanation of who they are below:

43 Llantrisant Road , Llantrisant and Llantwit Fardre R.D., Glamorganshire, Wales

Albert Chas Pullen 23 Aug 1903 married Coal Hewer
Florence Pullen 7 Jul 1903 married Household duties
Albert Geo Pullen 21 Oct 1928 at school
Doris E Wood (Pullen) 10 Aug 1932 at school
Audrey I Gardner (Stone) (Pullen) 12 Jun 1936 Under school Age
Herbert Stock 19 Mar 1894 (possibly 1874?) married Bricklayer
Florence C Stock 4 Oct 1876 married Household duties
Hilda M Norton (Stock) 21 Dec 1925 at school
-------------------------------------

Florence Pullen was Henry's sister- she married Albert Charles Pullen in 1928

Herbert and Florence were Henry's parents

Hilda M Stock was the grandchild of Herbert and Florence. Hilda's parents were Herbert Stock (Henry's brother) and Annie Morris.
Hilda married David Vorley Norton in 1945, and she died in Worthing in 1989

Herbert Reginald's son Herbert David George as mentioned in the probate posted by AustinQ, was probably born Pontypridd

Births Mar 1924 Stock Herbert D G Morris Pontypridd 11a 1131


Marriage of parents

Marriages Sep 1922
MORRIS Annie M Stock Pontypridd 11a 1418
STOCK Herbert R Morris Pontypridd 11a 1418

I'm still wondering if Henry went back to the Bristol area, as per the death I posted previously:

Name: Henry F Stock
Birth Date: abt 1909
Date of Registration: Sep 1968
Age at Death: 59
Registration district: Bristol
Inferred County: Gloucestershire
Volume: 7b
Page: 20

but not sure how to tie it in (or not).

It does look promising Kucinta- although I can't see anything concrete to tie it in either.

There is a tree on Ancestry (User name tsgadam) that has Henry Frederick Stock b1909 Nailsea, Somerset with a partner (name is private), but likely Jean Dunn, and a daughter born in 1954 Bristol. The daughter was still living in Bristol 2011.

It might be worth contacting them as they obviously have later details of his life.

So do you think the daughter married in 1972?

I think it's very likely Kucinta
