These three events might, or might not, be him:
Year Of
Last name First name(s) Marriage Death Record set Location
Bevan Herbert Reginald Jones — 1952 Probate Gosport, Hampshire
Bevan Herbert R 1962 - Marriages Birmingham, Warwickshire
Bevan Herbert Richard — 1966 Probate Surrey
Bevan Herbert Richard — 2013 Probate Hampshire
A will has been found for the last and has been ordered, just in case it adds some light to the matter and as the birth year is propitious:
Name: Year of Birth:
BEVAN, HERBERT RICHARD 1928
GRO Reference: DOR Q4/2013 in HEREFORDSHIRE (511-1B) Entry Number 509526700
__________________
The will names his wife as Sylvia Joyce (Bevan). And indeed Herbert R Bevan did marry Sylvia J Booth in Q1 of 1962.

Their children:
Last name First name(s) Year Of Birth Location
Bevan Robert A 1962 Kidderminster, Worcestershire, England
Bevan Timothy C 1965 Martley, Worcestershire, England
Bevan Deborah Ann 1967 Colchester, Essex, England
Bevan Victoria Louise 1970 Colchester, Essex, England
Bevan David Richard G 1971 Worcester, Worcestershire
The two girls were not included in Herbert’s will. They were born some way from Worcester and may be from a different pair of Bevan-Booth parents. There was one such male-female pair in 1964, married in Liverpool and he may then have gone to Essex for work; not sure about this. For the moment I will accept the three that were in his will and see if anything else turns up. Might Sylvia Joyce’s will show anything different?
