Robert's birth is indexed with mother's maiden name ELLAM.

If his father was Reginald, this is probably the parents' marriage

Marriages Jun 1919

Ellam Ethel M ....Gill ....Halifax 9a 1055
Gill Reginald ..... Ellen ..... Halifax 9a 1055

NOTE Freebmd have indexed Ethel's surname incorrectly if you look up Reginald's marriage.
The image is poor.

It might be a good idea to purchase a copy of his death cert.

It will give you cause of death and you will be able to see if wife Barbara was the informant.

His birth, marriage and death certificates should all have his 'normal' address on them.

You could then check the historical electoral rolls at the nearest Archive or library which has a local studies centre. That will show other registered voters at the same address. They can't be searched by name and there was no ER taken during WW2 1939-1945.
You may not find the names of adult females until into the 1920's.

There is a Robert GILL in the birth index on freebmd with that mother's maiden name, but it was many years later......in 1940s.
