Is "yours" Lewis George Ronald, born Sept. qtr of 1909, mother's maiden name Elly?

If so I can't find a marriage for the parents.

The only other Lewis George Humphrey I can see is born 1907.

Perhaps he was in the services in 1939.

You could buy the death certificate that you found and it should have his father's name on it even if someone else registered the death. In the "occupation" column it should say "son of............."
