I have looked everywhere for my Dad on the 1939 census. It seems to be a mystery. He SHOULD be at Shaftesbury boarding school and he was 14 years old. This is verified by my Mother who is still alive. There are loads of crossed out names on the school register for 1939 but my dad`s should have been uncrossed as he died in 1975. There could be a problem with his name as although he is called Robert Antony Wheeler, he was called Tony and maybe hence not picked up as having died. He was born on the 27th Feb 1925.
I have enquired about this to The National Archives and FMP but of course I can`t verify this as being a school and not in a family. His parents are both at home incidentally with no other names as he was an only child. Thanks
