Well depending how much you want to follow him up you may have to get one of the marriage certs for his age and fathers name

I don't think he died very long ago???

-If you're sure he died in Leeds- I think he's listed on electoral roll at an address in Leeds from 2003-2009, with his wife Barbara. He's listed as Ernest M Thompson. (let me know if you want details from electoral register and I'll pm them)

Deaths on Ancestry are only listed up to 2007- his death certificate would have provided his date of birth, but as his death was after this date we can't access the info.

I would follow Shirley's advice and order his marriage certificate (from GRO)- which is very easy to do and can be ordered on-line at http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp . As Shirley has said this will provide his age, occupation and father's name and occupation.

If you still need help when get the certificate let us know :)
