Thank you all for the information.

I know about Jack as his granddaughter is my daughter in law but nobody knows much about Kenneth.

The info re trip to cape town is worth following up although he was known to have been in England in 1960's.

Have not found anything in free bmd re marriage

Unfortunately another case of not speaking to older relations before they die
