He was on the electoral register from 1998 to 2018 at the house where his mother had died from in 2005 and he had died from in 2008. I do not know what this says about the data reliability of those electoral roles. The address was: 50, Vera Road, London, London, SW6 6QW.
No marriage found for him up to 2005 when those records ceased to be published widely.

But I’m not spending £11 to prove it!

Will notes for Benjamin Simon Robert Talbot
His probate index:
2008
Surname First name Date of probate Probate number Date of death Document type Registry
TALBOT BENJAMIN SIMON ROBERT 03 February 2009 2942131 19 July 2008 Grant and will Ipswich
His will has been ordered to see if he had any family.
___________________
His will was dated 10th May 2007 and appointed Paul Easthaugh and Toni Drewett as his executors.
The probate grant had him living at 29 Denby Jackman’s Estate letchworth Garden City Hartfordshire and he left £91000 net.
In addition he listed:
1. Tracey Jun Nobbs, who was left £20,000 and who lived at 29 Denby, Letchworth Garden City, Herts.
2. Rachel Nobbs, who was the residual legatee and for whom his residual estate would be held in trust until she became 25.
Some clauses at the end make it likely that Rachel Nobbs was his daughter - and thus a Powys descendant.
Is this good enough to add her to the confirmed list of Powys descendants?
