Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 23 Feb 2017 13:30

Well born 1916 he could well have married before 1939 so wouldnt be with his parents

When did he marry . That would be the best cert for his dads name

Edit as he passed in Plymouth this looks like the marriage

Marriages Sep 1944
SOUTHERN George A West Plymouth 5b 749
WEST Betty Southern Plymouth 5b. 749

Perhaps he was in the forces then as WW2 and Plymouth was a naval base
He may have already joined up so won't show on the 1939 register
