If you think he is living there now, try the phone book

Would he be Brian C, born about 1933, or of far more recent vintage?

Thanks Flick. I don't have a phone book for Norfolk, being in Kent.

I think you can access all phone books at main libraries.

You did not answer my question.
Does he have another initial to make identification easier, or do you know approximately when he was born.
Was he born in Norfolk, or you believe he is living there now?

Phone numbers on-line:

As Jan suggested, all phone books are in the reference section of every main public library

And the BT phone book is on line.......free. As per patchem's link above

Plus.............countless companies offering Directory Enquiry services

Hi Patchem,

I'm afraid I don't know whether he has a middle name or his age. He is the uncle of my friend who is trying to trace his mother who left the family home when he was 5. My friend does not know if his uncle had a middle name or if he was born in Norfolk.

Many thanks

If you could list your friend's mother's details we can then find Brian's birth.

We need full name and when/where she was born.

You can also look here:

Your friend must have at least some idea of the man's age............based on his mother's year of birth.

Have you done anything about looking for the mother's birth on freebmd?

This would lead you to Brian's birth...................
