[rosie99]

I would be searching the London Gazette (5.3)

could not find anything in the gazette

As I said - you can call yourself anything you like!
You don't need a Deed Poll

[Plummiegirl]

Yes. as long as it is not for fraudulent purposes you can call yourself anything you like.

I had an older cousin who changed her name, and then married so after 2 name changes she became by co-incidence Elizabeth Taylor!

yeah the information i have was that he did it in 1959 by deed poll

Perhaps you will have to recheck your source of information.
The bride in the 1959 marriage looks to have remarried in 1963.  You could look for a death/divorce within those dates.

Hey heywood

I know he was still alive early 1970s.. not sure what you mean check my sources??

I know they divorced sometime in the 60s and she remarried . am not looking her side ..

Hi yes i found those two children which makes me think he must have changed his whole name not just his last name and has to be one of theses two children

 the parents married in egypt in 1924 jones/kurban army marriage

in 1959 bill changed name to Bill Kurban on his marriage it has him as William G Kurban ... his mothers maiden name ..Kurban ..

so not sure what his name was before that and weather his death would be under new name as he disaapered
