The Ada L Bicknell that Maddie has posted above in the 1939 register is NOT your Ada L. That one is married and her maiden name was Fitzpatrick, born 1913.

you need to look on freebmd for births as they cannot be posted here
eg

George H Bicknell married one of these people

Gladys A Harvey
Spouse's last name Harvey
District Birmingham
1934

there are two bicknell / harvey births to be found post 1934

Is there a census for Dennis bicknell

Maddie

Maddie Report 15 Aug 2018 16:12

no the last census on line is 1911
there are only electoral rolls

KathleenBell

KathleenBell Report 15 Aug 2018 16:22

There is an up to date address on the electoral register on Findmypast for Dennis F. Bicknell - however the site is playing up at the moment and I can't access the record. When the site is working properly again I will send you the address by private message.

EDIT - it may actually be the address of a company that he is a director of but I can't tell until the site is working again.
