His birth index:

Name:                             Mother's Maiden Surname:
BEVAN, HERBERT RICHARD            PRATT  
GRO Reference: 1928  D Quarter in NEWTON ABBOT  Volume 05B  Page 121

He is probably in the 1939 census but the entry may have been redacted as he was still alive when it was published.

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?
