Joyce, As there's a possible remarriage for father Roy, can you say what your connection is please, as all these people may still be living.

Joyce, it's just a matter of privacy not saying you shouldn't post, just that some info might be better sent by private message.

For instance if there was a seperation or divorce of a couple, it helps to know which parent may have remarried when searching the records to try and help. Without knowing which parent Stephen stayed with it makes it harder to trace where he might be now.

I assume you know the people who have his father Roy on their GR trees.
You could try http://www.freeelectoralroll.co.uk/Electoral_Roll_Search.asp for Stephen.

There are several trees on here showing Roy Joyce, so you could try sending a message to them, to see how or if they are connected.

if they weren't divorced I think you should get their marriage cert for exact ages, it will help to know that to trace them forward and therefore Stephen's birth.
