• Notes

  There is no obvious information on his wife in 1939, Alice, nor can I find anybody with a birth that matches what is in the 1939 Register (also tried changing the year by +/- 1 year). I have found a marriage between Alice and John BRUCE in 1946, and then her death (as LING) in 1973. At the 1939 Register she is married, and since she is given as "unpaid domestic duties", Henry is clearly providing the income. Given that he would be 51, I assume he is more likely to be in hospital than providing some direct war effort. On 4/6/1936, he arrives at Tilbury on "Highland Patriot" from Rio da Janeiro, with Alice Mary Dorothy, and a child, Henry, presumably his son. Both Henry and Alice are given as 48, he is an Accountant, and they were living at 40, Streatham Common (N).
