Worth mentioning his middle initial is H. Helps narrow things down.

Is his middle initial M or H?

H for Halifax, M looks like Bradford.
So which is it?

It is M if the 1955 marriage is correct

Just to clarify, his name is John Michael Nicholl and he was born in Halifax. He left the family while they were living in Leeds in the early to mid 1960's. My wife is Isabelle Jacqueline who was the middle child between two sons. We are just tryoing to complete the family tree.

According to free bmd, John M Nicholl was born in Bradford in 1933, and John H Nicholl in Halifax in 1933.
If yours is John M Nicholl from Halifax, then somewhere there is a transcription error and there are 2 John M Nicholls born in 1933 in Yorkshire to complicate matters.
There is no obvious marriage for John M Nicholl in the 1960's in Yorkshire - one in Ealing and one in Oxford. Do you know where he married? There is no obvious death until 2005.

He married in Changi whilst serving in the RAF in Singapore. I have found the records to verify this.

Yes, you are quite right. My apologies but he was born in Bradford rather than Halifax.
