Unfortunately after the time when the probate records online said who probate was granted to, so no telling here if husband still alive, A copy of the will might give some information.

That would make sense Kath I was just being a meanie and trying to cut costs :-D. I will do that and hopefully sort him.


Many thanks to everyone for their input it is very much appreciated.

It might be worth buying the marriage certificate to see what his occupation was and if he names his father.

I was hoping that I could find a death with an age that I could work back from but there is nothing coming up on here,FMP or free BMD most puzzling.

I wonder if he tried to make himself seem older (perhaps because of the war) as there is this birth in 1905:-

If so then this is his parent's marriage:-

I have no certificate for them so no idea Kath

KathleenBell Report 29 Dec 2018 22:22

I can only see 2 Joseph Milehams in the 1939 register. One is born 1903 and is a single Spray Painter. The other is born 1875 and is a married hotel kitchen porter. The first is possibly more likely and he is living in Southwark.

Do you have his marriage certificate? If so what was his occupation so we can try to locate him in the 1939 register which will give his birth date.

I am having great problems with this fella. I only have the following information to go on to attempt to find his birth and his death.

He married Teresa May Hixon nee Huckle 1942 in Willesden,Middx. I can last trace them in Willesden in 1960.

Teresa was born 1901 in Biggleswade 4/7/1901 and died 8/8/1986 in Elstree/Potters bar area.


Thank you
