Classification: Query
Surnames: Joseph Homer
I've been attempting to trace my Grandfather Joseph Homer born 21.11.1910 in a place called Tipton England.
Joseph served in the Royal Engineers and Royal Pioneer Corps, army no.1948506 during the 2nd World War and we think he saw service in France and Belgium.
After the war he never returned home( demobbed 1948) and heresay said he'd met someone in Belgium moved there and remarried (without a divorce) having two girls.
I have promised my Uncle to attempt to find more information if I can. My Uncle has spent most of his life searching for him and he is 77 and in ill health and would love to put this to rest.
I know it's a real long shot but can anyone help? Any idea where to go to trace deaths abroad?
I have more information on Josephs family if required.
