__________________
In 1931 electoral rolls for Honiton Division of Devon he, his mother and his father were on that electoral roll. presumably he got on it when he was 21, that year.
_________________
He was also executor for the wills of both his parents, possibly because he was the eldest son who remained in England?

In 1949 he was a principal winner in a fruit flower and vegetable competition held by the British legion in Seatton, Devon.

In 1956 there were these two passengers on a boat from Liverpool to Nigeria:
Name DoB English address Role
Archer, Louisa Dolores 11-4-23 Flat 8 31 58 Peter’s Crescent Bournemouth, Hants Housewife
Archer, Geoffrey Onslow 12-12-50
This indicates to me a strong definite possibility that she had married Geoffrey and they had a son in 1950.
This birth was found on FindMyPast:
First name(s) Jeffrey O
Last name Archer
Birth quarter 4
Birth year 1950
Mother's maiden name Uribe
District Bournemouth
County Dorset
Country England

Page 247
Record set England & Wales Births 1837-2006
I think his birth certificate needs ordering. Done on 27 Feb 2022.
`No marriage found between Archer and Uribe.
Mar 4th 2022, TFPL: The birth certificate has arrived. The boy’s father was Barry Hughes Archer who was the informant at the registration of his birth and living at 31 St Peter’s Crescent, Bournemouth.
So this is not the last living descendant of the 3rd baron Lilford; that remains Richard Raymond Archer who died in 1995 and with that, the line of the third baron completely expired - or at least it did according to my researches.
