Hi there, welcome to the boards!

Have you tried locating his birth on Freebmd? The 2nd name (in this case Rose) is the maiden name of the person's mother.

Is this him do you think?

Births Dec 1945 (>99%)
Parker Arthur E Rose Brentford 3a 352

It is possible to search again for the same surname/mother's name combination to look for possible siblings.

hi thanks for the replies I have all that info he was born in Isleworth Middlesex the question I was asking is has he got any brothers or sisters out there I can't find anything out from my mother because I have had no contact with her for over 10 years.

Go to this link:

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Then do as was suggested above:

'Put in surname Parker mmn Rose.' to find siblings

(mmn is mother's maiden name)

Brentford includes Isleworth. And is Middlesex not Bucks.

However, his siblings, if any, could have been born elsewhere, and there are then many possible siblings.


Added:
If you look for Parker/Rose births in Middlesex from 1935 to 1955,there are 2 other births. You would need the birth certificates for parents names to check if they are his siblings.

Did you find any further information about your Father's death - funeral notices or newspaper condolences?

If you look on 192.com for Shelly Price (with Arthur Parker), they appear to have been living with a female named Parker in Guildford.

actually if you look at this particular record at 192.com

http://www.192.com/atoz/people/price/shelly/gu1/912213820/

and click on each name listed below in turn

you will see the full list of related people who lived at that address, in different years, with some info about them (e.g. age range, although I would wonder about that first one)

the list of other names is slightly different for each person you click on

this may give you an idea of names of possible half-siblings or step-siblings

how did you learn of your father's death, not from a member of his family?

Thank you everyone i'm gonna do what u say above :) an I did find them through 192 in 2009 I finally built up the courage to phone and shelly price said he had died and he had been cremated I asked her did he have any more children and she said no so I just left it at that I now need a passport which I need to put my fathers details on the form and since I've started looking for his details I've been curious about the other parker on 192 but I don't know if I want to phone her again i'll just do a bit of research an see where it takes me ;-) :-)
