There's a death for a Wallace Powdril born Dec 1930 in 2001.

This looks to be your Wallace.

PM from Barry:

"Hi Rose. I would like as much information as possible.On his birth registrar certificate he has the same name as his mother (garroway), so has he been adopted and given the name Powdrill?I would like to know his mothers first name to see if it matches in with our garroways names.If there is any match i would like to know all the ancestors and decendants. barry"


You will need to purchase his birth certificate if you wish to know his mother's name.

I'm guessing his mother wasn't actually married to Mr Powdrill at the time.
