There ya go.

No guarantees that's your man, of course.

The good news is that I don't see a death 1984-2005 in the index that matches that name and birthdate.

Chris, re your message -- I have no idea who he was or what he did. The information I sent you is just taken from a search of the birth registration index, looking for Geoffrey Jones born about 1940, and that was the only birth in Warwickshire.

I have no idea whether he was a truck driver, it's just that having accurate info about birthdates (and his mother's surname) could help at some point along the way.

I did say "no need to reply to the message". I didn't actually say "no need to say 'thank you'," by the way.


Please put any further info or questions in this thread by clicking the purple Reply button at the top, rather than by replying by private message. Lots of people here who don't know your Geoffrey might be able to help you find info.

And you would do well to thank anyone who does!

There seems to have been only one Geoffrey Jones born in Warwickshire around that time. I'll send you the birth details privately (since it is personal info about a living person) in case it helps. No need to reply to the message you get - you're welcome in advance!

For other readers' info: if that is him, the name is Geoffrey E Jones.

You need to edit your subject line to put a surname in.

You could see it when you posted. Nobody else can see it. Believe it or not! It's how this fantabulous system works.

This is a very long shot I think date of birth would be 1940 ish Know he worked for Thermolite in coventry as a driver and lived in Shustoke in the 1960s any body know anything else I would be grateful
Thanks
