  • Looking for missing uncle ...help please

    Hi
    I am looking for mums uncle last known address is 1975
    i have searched all through death index can't find him
    does anyone know of a good electoral roll site .. not on subs
    thought there was a uk phone book site but can't find it now


    last phonebook entry on ancestry is 1975 , did find a listing on net for his house being sold in 1980 .. was he still living there then ?.

        If your Mum knows the names of any of his children - I'd start looking for them in the local area - hopefully not John Smith or equivalent.

        Depending on his age he maybe in a home or just ex-directory or not on the public electors roll.

        Alternatively you could write to the last address and ask if they know where he went or contact details of anyone who might know.

        How far away is it from your home - could you get there and have a look at the electors roll for 1975 and subsequent years and see if there is a longstanding neighbour.

        Does the local paper have any sort of "Where are they now" - or "Getting in Touch" features?

        We have them in our free paper from the council.

          Regarding the house being sold. Could it be that it was previously owned by the local authority? In which case he may have bought it from them.
          You could check the land registry for current title details - cost £3. Here's the link for that.

                Hi JBee
                yes with a surname like White its not easy and he would be 82 and was born in Nuneaton Warwickshire , Nuneaton the last address we have for him in 1975

                as far as we know he had no children
                I did write to address a few years back and sadly received no reply
                and from website looks like house was sold at least acouple of times 2000 and 2004.

                      Just had alook at site , looks like you have to sign up to complete package for lookups , was hoping there was a site you could just purchase credits on
                      to do electoral roll search ..I have Ancestry sub at mo ( wish they had electoral rolls for uk)

                        I have sent you another Pm I think I may have just found the info that you require. I will not post the info here as it relates to Living People.

                          I could do a 192.com look up for you if you still need it.

                            HI

                            Just so the others know I have done a 192.com and an electoral roll check and a Land registry check and I am awaiting Jebbo's feedback.


                            But due to timezone differences it may be a few days before Jebbo can fully update the inital message.
