So that means between Sept 1939 & April 1940 he upped sticks to Ruthin & changed jobs from engineer to licensed victualler.

Managed to locate this Victualler license, he was transferred the license of the Old Anchor Inn from 17th Nov 1941 to 15th Jan 1951.

I still have questions about why he involved in the war effort, seeing as he was a skilled electrician but no military file.

Unless he was, and it's all secret.

Great to be able to finally find his official License in the archive's License Register, with the elctoral registers confirming from 1945, too.
