I have finally found my grandfather's death information. Evidently in 1942 he was suffering from senile dementia and various other health problems and was evacuated to a hospital in Glasgow as he could not be cared for in London. He died there. I still havent found his burial details though. |

Thank you for your replies. Richard was born in Lympstone Devon in March 1965. They lived in Lewisham for many years. Florence died in 1961 in Lewisham, registration district Deptford. |

There are 2 trees on Ancestry with this family, but neither are showing a 1942 marriage although both have your parents marriage in April 1947. Which marriage is in 1942, and when was it, as the nearest marriage on those trees is 1940? I realise one of these trees may be yours. |

I am still trying to find death of my grandfather. He was still alive in 1942 as we have found a picture of him at his daughter's wedding. He looks very frail tho. I have tried various different spellings of Hockings, but still no luck. |

Have checked dates and my parents marriage certificate, they married in 1947 and Richard was noted as deceased then. So above cannot be him. |

You could phone GRO and explain that you feel it is misspelt and give date 1948 .they will search 2 years before and after that date .Could say he lived in the Deptford area ,and must have a wife named as you stated . |

Thank you all. Florence died in about 1960, I remember because I was about 13 at the time. My father told me that his father had died before I was born (1948), I think it might have been during the war. He was born in Lympstone Devon, and was an apprentice to Florences father. |
