His mother's maiden name is listed as Lewis on his birth registration.

And then she marries a Price in 1956. Was Alan adopted or did he take the Price surname?

Where have you been looking? Not seeing these names in your tree on here and not finding any other messages from you on Google.

Bernice appears to have died in 2008 and looks to have left a will"

Hello Thank you so much for the quick reply. I have just ordered a copy of the will and fingers crossed it will give details of Alan. I don't know whether he was formally adopted by Mr Price.
I have tried to be sensitive - Alan is my half brother. Wm Pearson (marriage of 1948) is both our fathers but I don't know whether Alan will be aware of this, or indeed if he wants to know about it.
Your information about the Wills and Probates will hopefully take me forward. Thank you so much. Maureen

Maureen,

It's possible Alan has a half sister from Bernice's 2nd marriage. Will PM the details. She is also a member of this site.
