Find Ancestors

Eric Alfred Tindall born 1906 Sydenham. Parents were Edward Tindall and Emma Bates. In 1911 the family is living in Sydenham, London. After that I can find nothing re Eric. There is a 1940 marriage in Lincolnshire for an Eric A Tindall but I do not think this is my guy. I believe this is the marriage for the Eric A Tindall whose birth was registered 1913 Caistor Lincolnshire.
I have checked marriage ,death and travel with no luck.

Have you got an exact date of birth for him - can help with finding death?

How did you get back to his family- if closely related, do any of your cousins or other family know anything about him?

Have you got the death certificates of both parents to see if he is the informant?

Have you looked to see if he is in anyone's tree on here?

This discussion poster states it is your man that marries in 1940, so for info. only:

Added:
Is it you, and you have changed your mind?

This is on Rootschat but looks like the Lincolnshire one. However his middle name is Alfred.

Eric and Gwendoline Tindall
« on: Thursday 28 February 13 22:04 GMT (UK) »I have been looking for the death of Eric and Gwendoline without any success and wonder if they may have left the country after the war.
Eric Alfred Tindall born 1906 Kent married Gwendoline Steer 1940 in Cleethorpes district of Lincolnshire. They had a set of twins in 1945. Have not purchased marriage cert so do not know anything re Gwendoline.

Thanks

Rootschat post is mine before I found the 1913 Lincolnshire birth
