I was going to post his name but then I realised he was born in 1922 so I didn't, but I have subsequently found his death record.

I think the place is Merrow and not Merren.

Is this your Elizabeth White leaving England for Canada in 1952? Was your Elizabeth a nurse?

Yes, that's her. Her father lived in Dorset until he died.
He ran the family business in Guildford (large draper's shop) but rather disgraced himself by having an affair and then my great-great-grandmother decided not to leave him the bulk of her estate. His wife divorced him and Elizabeth lived with her.

My Aunt's record was opened years before she died because someone with the same name, but not the same birthday had died. There could easily be another Elizabeth White somewhere whose record remains incorrectly closed. Come 2025, I imagine that the entry that was used for your Elizabeth will be opened, and may (or may not!) show the surname Crotty

So they likely got married in Canada, then.

Bernard looks as though he was born at Dundalk, Eire, in Q4 1923.

I thought that was a different person?

I thought that the one born in Ireland died in the USA in 2018, but that "your" Bernard died in Croydon in 1976?

I'll need to have another look.
