Electoral Roll

Name: Alan M Bain
Year: 1965
County or Borough: Ealing
Ward or Division/Constituency: Acton
Street address: 105 Avenue Road
Reference Number: LCC/PER/B/2984

105 Avenue Road – living with
Alec G Bain
Ellen J Bain
Elsie F Bain

Presumably the first 2 are his parents

So is Elsie a sister/other relative or his wife

The earliest ER he is shown on in Ealing is 1949, with the same 3 people

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 21 Jun 2015 23:48

There's the marriage in Ealing in 1978 of an Elsie F Bain to an Alan M Bain.
(On Ancestry, not FreeBMD.)

Too late for the ER above, though.
Perhaps she took his name, but didn't marry until later?

ArgyllGran Report 22 Jun 2015 00:09

Very long shot - absolutely no reason to think this is the same person, except for middle initial, and YOB would fit:

EDIT: probably correct death, in light of later posts below.

Alan would have been 61 at marriage.
Elsie was already Bain
Maybe she was a widow of one of his brothers/ cousins

Jacqueline Report 22 Jun 2015 09:14

As you are so sure he fathered a son named Michael, can you tell us when the child was born?

Have you obtained a copy of Alan's death cert, for details of the informant?

Are you in touch with any other family members?

If you are related to these people, are they in your GR tree?

ADDED........

NO they aren't, but Alan is in FOUR trees.......................as are his siblings. And his father is in at least THREE

Try to get in touch with the 'owners' - search trees should be the first place to look when trying to find living people through this site
