There was a Stanley W Barker on the Voters List in Bexleyheath until 2002.

I'll check tomorrow if there was a death in Bexleyheath area in 2002/03 of a Stanley W Barker of roughly the correct age.

S.W. Barker was on the F.L. list as a line 52-3 to 55-6 and as a referee 56-7 to 57-8

His addresses were   
33 Wellfield Road, Hatfield (1952-53)
and
16 Canberra Road , Bexleyheath (1953-58)

Does the latter tie up with the voters list (or an earlier edition?)

I don't know, John. I found him on the free part of www.192.com, but to look at the precise address would require setting up an account. There is also the possibility that he might have moved between 1958 and 2002, albeit still in Bexleyheath, and hence that the check might be inconclusive even if an account was created.

After much digging and NOT paying for the 192 rip off premium service

I found that the 2002 address matches the 1950s one

Which leads eventually to

Stanley William Barker (1913-2003)

Thanks for the lead

So is that the same man ? We seem to have gone from S W Barker to Stanley William Baxter ?

04/11/1958 – D. Lewis (Dalston, London) & Alfred "Alf" John "Jack" Sturgeon (Putney, London)

I think D. Lewis maybe Dennis Lewis.

The two attached newspaper cutting indicate this may be him.
Can anyone just rule out that there wasn't any other " D. Lewis' " on the linesman list for the period?

There were three F.L. lines called Lewis in 1958-59

George R. (also appearing above) of Malvern

John G.D. of Port Talbot

and

D. (now found to be Dennis) of 28 Lewis (sic) Flats, Amhurst Toad, Dalston, London E8


Which just leaves J.H. Robinson
Flat 1, 26 Denbigh Street, Victoria, London S.W.1
