Thanks Flick for your help, I do have access, just still a novice at this kind of thing and sometimes it gets a little confusing.
Thanks Lynski I found that record too, but that Philip Henry settled in Syracuse New York where he raised a family and died. The Philip Henry I am looking for went on to father 4 children in the 1920s here in England.

As you obviously have access to all records, I'll leave you to it..................happy hunting

And, as I'm sure you've realised, Shropshire is by no means the only location for members of this family

It looks like Frank Robert died in 1963.

Yes, that is very strange. I have had the same problem with Philip Henry Hales. I never could find a death for him either and he was born in 1868 so I know he is still not alive.

oops, that should have read 1841. I have tried calling several Hales in the area, but so far with no luck.
