Just to say, I haven't come across that couple when looking at the family of Ernest and Ana Marie (Doreen's parents).
Interestingly, when I search that address on Ancestry's London erolls I don't get any matches!!

1965 marked the reorganisation of local government. An outer London borough like Bromley would previously been in Kent, so 1965 would be the earliest year you could find an electoral roll in the London collection (anomalies excepted!)

Thanks Phoenix. I don't know why I didn't get 1965 come up though? Maybe I was focusing on earlier dates at the time I searched?!

The order of names on Kite's link look very odd: they are not as set out on the page.
But Kite's search included the word lansdowne, so you should have had a result.

If you still think this couple from the electoral rolls are relations, any idea whether it's on the Simpson side or the wife's side (I'm presuming Kiterunner gave you her likely maiden name from the 1963 marriage in a personal message)?
I have looked at the likely parents of the husband, but I don't see how they would connect to the other Simpsons already on this thread (though with such a common surname I could have gone wrong!). There could, of course, be a different connection to you via different Simpsons, or through the wife's surname or that of either of their mothers.

Merry, click on the link in post #70 and then at the bottom of the screen, next to the image number, click on the icon of two heads with lines next to them. This brings up the index, which should match the sequence of the names on the image, but in this case is jumbled. To stop seeing the index, just click on the same icon again.
