I didn't like to post a negative result so have waited and you seem to confirm what I thought, I could not find either a marriage, death or census for him, so thought he might haved emigrated.

Brilliant! Who needs CSI when I have you super-sleuths on the case?

That certainly explains why they don't appear in the records after the war.

Thanks very much to all.

Just a quick update


Dickiesam Charles Meal also went away to sea

Tina Thomas Ernest Meal ended up in Australia at various addresses with a Ada Meal who I assume is his wife.

Nice conclusion. Looks like we can now draw down the curtain on this one, then.
