Have you looked on here in search all trees?

Look for his wife on the site www.192.com, or in the phone book

Are you related?

There was another son. Find his details on freebmd, as neither you nor the other member have him in your trees on here

This is probably why...

hi Rachel, people do like to know your connection with the people you are looking for, and what you know yourself already (do you know whether he had children for instance? do you know who his parents were because you are related to them? etc)

freebmd is mentioned and like many on the Living Relatives board you may not be familiar with the research sites

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

when you find his first marriage you click on the page number to see who he married

then when you know his wife's surname you search for births with those parents' surnames and that will give you his children's names

because they are likely living their details shouldn't be posted here, but if you have trouble doing that search you can ask and someone will send the info to you privately

Researching:
You remember me. :)
