Hello jack... Welcome to the boards.

Here is the birth registration for your grandfather

Births Dec 1919

Florey Henry D ..... Fox ......Eton 3a 1759

Eton registration district covers many areas including Iver.

A really useful... and FREE.. place to start would be the freebmd site

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

Choosing Births.. you can type in FLOREY for surname... then FOX ( his mother's maiden name)
When you search, you should find the registrations of any of your grandfather's brothers or sisters.

Once you have the registered name, check on this GR site by clicking SEARCH..towards top right of screen... then Search all member trees to see if anyone else on this site is researching any of the FLOREY family.

Good luck

Gwyn

There seem to be quite a few more brothers and sisters.

Do you know who your great-grandparents were, and when they died?

Their probable marriage can also be found on that same website.
