Help with a Death Certificate Sidney Burrows

K

knowlegable brummie
Hi, Can anyone help with this query please.
I am trying to find out about a Sidney/Sydney Burrows who lived in May Lane, Hollywood/Maypole area of Birmingham. I believed he died in 1968 and had a son called Michael. I think he would have been in his sixties when he died? I would really appreciate any help, as we cannot find any trace of him?
 
theres a death of sidney burrows in 1960 sutton coldfield. aged 63
and another death of a sidney "barrow" in 1970 birmingham. date of birth 5 apr 1902

could either of these be the one you want??
 
Hi Shera,
I don't think either of them are him either but thank you so much for trying to help. All we know is he died in 1968 and lived in May Lane around the Hollywood, Wythall area. He had his own factory and a son called Michael. We have looked but there doesn't seem to be any trace of him with these details? I don't think there are any other ways of spelling Burrows other than this way?
 
sorry karen, thought i would just list them in case!

i can see him on the electoral rolls at 64 may lane up to 1960 but that is as far as the online electoral rolls go. he was living with may r. burrows there.

by the way, he is listed as "sydney" burrows on the electorall rolls.
 
Hi Shera,
That must be him then and at least I know how to spell his name now thanks to you. I'd love to know what happened to him from then on? He seems to just disappear.
