Have you tried 192.com?
Have you looked to see if he is on anyone's tree on here?

You are not meant to have personal email addresses on here, so you had best delete it, or someone may report your post which will make it difficult for anyone to help you.

Added:
He is David B Gledhill (always best to check free bmd)

Have you done any searches yourself?

BT phone books are in every main public library

You refer to him as being 'of Stockport'......do you mean he lived there at some time?

I have done some research, he lived in Stockport as far as I know in the late 1940 and early 1950's, but of course with the death of his parents he may have married and moved on?

Was he the informant on his Father's death certificate?
He was 34 when his Father died - had he not married by then? Was he still living at home? Did you attend the funeral, or know who did? Have you tried friends reunited if you know which school he went to?

There are 6 marriages for David B Gledhill's between 1963 and 1988, 3 Lancashire, 2 Yorkshire, 1 London.

Presumably the 'B' represents Brewster

Did you know that his father had re-married in 1959?
