Dear Igor and Rosie,

You have been so busy, and I am very grateful . . .  you have certainly given me mush to digest.

Will print out tour replies and look at them tonight with a glass of Scotland's Finest and proceed from there.

Thank you so much for your time

I think Rosie's Leslie Bradford is with his mother Ethel Moira Bradford (actress) aged 33 (married 8 years) in the 1911 at Darlington

Rosie,

I am positive you got the death right - 07/1979 Brent

And the Lewisham birth right qtr buy one year out could be good . . . the birth was given from memory so it could easily be a year out.

I should get that birth cert and see if the father is an Arthur . .

The Leslie Bradford with Ethel in 1911 is this birth: Leslie Bradford Mar.qtr.1904 Lewisham - mmn Craufurd on GRO index.   However, even for allowance of wrong birth year in 1939 and at death, this birth registered in March qtr. and he is said to have a birthday of 10th April!

I'm sure this is the William Bradford married to the Ethel Moir Crawford as the marriage parts of both of the 1911 censuses say the same - married 8 years,2 children 1 died.

This is him:
