If you use the "Search" option at the top right of the screen and then click on "search all member trees" there are three Genes members who have Herbert Hewison (who may be your Herbert's father) in their family trees. You can then click on their names and contact them directly.

If those are his parents, a tree on Ancestry says he married Mary Frazer Stewart, born 1923 Sunderland, died Durham, no date given.
They had a son, George Michael, born with surname Hewison, 1944 South Shields; died with surname Lovely, 1973 Newton Aycliffe.
In 1964 the son George married Maureen Skipper, born 1943 South Shields, died 1989 South Shields.

The tree shows they had a son - no details given.

It says Herbert died 22 Feb 1990 in Sydney.


FreeBMD shows a son with surname Hewison, born 1964 South Shields, mms Skipper..
There's also a son with surname Lovely, born Durham N E, 1969, mms Skipper.
