Notes for Harold Vivian Barham
It looks like his second name is Vivian, birth in 1902 and he was a London Accountant and Liquidator.  He was with College Hill Chambers, London E.C.4

More confirmation is needed.

It is cheap to get the will of 1960 which would so easily be he and see what it tells me.

His probate and will confirms that this is the husband of benita Dorothy barham.

His will clearly sates that his wife was Benita Dorothy Barham, so that we can complete his death date, etc from his probate.

In his will he left the residue after a life interest to his wife, to his two sons, names not given.  But they had to have been by a previous marriage.
