I am trying to locate the whereabouts of Derek Brewer born 1958 Rochford, Essex. The last known address I have for him is 15 Warrior Square, Southend on Sea, which was in 1979.

I have tried to locate him on the electoral register and also 192.com, but to no avail. Can anyone suggest what other resources may be available to use.

Many thanks

Pam

Sorry Jan, I should have put that in the original thread. His middle name is Francis and I already have his mother and fathers names as William and Louisa.

Thank you for contacting me.

Yes, the search you found is mine. Looks like Derek will be elusive for a while yet.

Thanks for all your help.

Have found two children named Brewer in Doncaster son and daugter to Brewer with maiden name Barth.

This ties in with one marriage, although the marriage was in Lincoln. Derek Brewer to Sarah Barth.

I will keep searching.
