I cannot trace my Grandfather’s death record and would appreciate any suggestions.
William Edward Bran bn 11 November 1867 Tower Hamlets, London, son of Edward Lewis Bran and Sarah Dring. I have been able to trace him throughout his life on line as he was on the Electoral Role between 1926 – 1939. I know that he died before I was born in 1947.
He had an serious accident during the 1920s or earlier, that left him disabled (I have a photograph of him in a bathchair). He always lived in London. He did not live alone after his accident firstly with one of his daughters and her husband, between 1926 - 1937 and then one of his sons lived with him until 1939. I cannot trace where the son was between 1939 and 1945 but that he got married in Worcestershire in that year.
The trail after that is lost. I have 2 theories: he went to Scotland to stay with relatives of his son-in-law and died in Scotland or he could have been evacuated and died at the place where he was staying.
I would appreciate your thoughts – many thanks
