O that would be most helpful if possible please

Karon, There is a possible electoral roll address for Raymond's former wife to 2014, it would be difficult to approach her about her ex husband, and she may have no idea what happened to him after, if indeed it is the right person.

But I can send the address if you want to try that route?

The wife in the 1973 marriage appears to have remarried though. in 1979 ( i think it's her though the first name is out by one letter it may be a mistranscription)

several Raymond marriages after that though, not in Kensington.

There is a Raymond Dennis marriage 1973 Kensington ?

There is a probate entry for Walter Henry in 1989 of 33 Barlby Road, died 18 Jan 89. May be worth ordering a copy (£10 I believe) to see if Raymond is mentioned, as his brother pre-deceased his father he would be the only relative left.

Marguerite's marriage can be found on freebmd, as can possible birth of a daughter to that marriage.

So his was the latest death and Raymond could be the informant it should give his address at that time

It looks likely Walter H was born in 1912, and Elizabeth in 1919 - I wonder if they can be found on the 1939 register to get actual dates of birth to find deaths and check for probate/wills. May give an indication of whether Raymond was mentioned, but I don't have a FMP subscription.

OOps should have refreshed first.
