John seems to be a bit illusive. So working on the basis that his daughter Victoria would be able to tell Della of her uncles abouts, I've have been looking at her trail.

Have PM'd probable details of Victorias' husband Nicholas birth reg & that of their children.

This would put Victoria & her family in the Taunton area, Devon in 2005

Why not write to the Royal Navy people and see if they have his last address or could forward a letter to him. Even tho he might have left the Navy they might have details that would help.

Good luck

Boards search for JOHN LESLIE FARROW

Total of 26 threads between Della and Vicky (the Victoria in question above whom everyone has been diligently trying to find for Della -- she is posting the same search herself here, duplicating Della's every multiple move), on every board going.

Many people have repeatedly PMed the same info to them, and asked the same questions. Neither of them seems to have acknowledged any posts in reply to theirs.

One more post of this nature is going to result in an abuse report from yours truly, at least.

btw, please do not advise posters to post on another board when efforts have already been made in one thread (let alone 20-something). Sending posters to TTF virtually always just results in TTF regulars wasting their time on duplication.
