That's spot on is that jjen and trish for some reason my grandmothers maiden name had completely left my mind but thats it, have tried talking to family but no one ever seems to know or want to say anything so makes life kinda hard to find anything out the only other part I do know is that my dads side (simkiss part) his father came from Birmingham but that's all I know don't even know his name, can be annoying but my family just don't like talking bout things like this

If you lookup your father's birth on FreeBMD you will find his mother's maiden name.

Checking for a Simkiss and mother's maiden name marriage finds one in Bradford for 1949

Checking that Simkiss birth in the period 1900-1933, gives only one matching forenames and that is born in Birmingham, 1926.

HTH.
