Thank you.
I had estimated 1920 for his birth bus so far had not found his birth.
Perhaps he was Naturalised British rather than born here?
I wonder if he is BOAC air crew?
They had a daughter in JUN 1946 in Hampstead

The 1958 record shows a birth in Jersey, Channel Islands. I am unsure re availability but there is information here.

I found the crew list for this one and he was not part of the crew on this flight:
25 May 1956 from London to NYC
26 July 1956 from NYC to London

the 1962 trip posted earlier should be 29 March 1962, and the card says "passenger boarded at"

same wording for the 1958 and 1960 arrivals "passenger boarded at"

I didn't post the address the first time around, but I realize now he would be 101 if still alive, therefore probably deceased and no longer at the address.
