I can't find anything on my great uncle Leonard Greenwood born in Manchester in 1904.

Did he marry?
Is he dead?

Can anybody help please

There are all these marriages in Lancashire at about the time he could possibly have married. He didn't necessarily have to have married in Manchester:-

if he lived and worked S manchester the 1924 marriage in Barton Island looks the best bet so far
