Hi Michael
re your comment above - this Ernest Heise is actually my great uncle. My Heise family has always been located in Brighton and seem to have arrived around 1860. My search is as frustrating as yours started out. People disappear, have no death records and I cannot get back to find where in Germany the family came from. I believe they had a difficult time during WW1 and there is some family talk of a name change to Heath. However, I continue to dig...
Anyway, hope that helps you eliminate one mystery person from your search.
all the best
Sally
