Brian,

Have you checked to see whether your father left a will? Wills are often rich sources of information.

If you know where he worked, look at Friends reunited - it has a workplace section

Violet and Wilkinson produced three children

Thank you all for help but tried researching back as well William Samuel Perrier died 1916 at war and any one that has Violet Perrier in there tree on has her because of marriage to Mr Wilkinson and they have no information. I do know that the spelling of surname changed when you go backwards to Peryer but still hoping we can connect with the Chichester Perrier,s or anyone that might have worked with my father as the last contact any of my family had with him was in 1953 and that was just before I was put into Dr Barnadoe,s

Name: PERRIER, James W W
Registration district: Chichester
County: Sussex
Year of registration: 1967
Quarter of registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
Age at death: 47

I can't see a marriage for him at all.
