Would I need to search the websites you mentioned to get the details of Thomas Henry (not sure which name should come first) Joyce’s parents etc?
Also, how would I find out if he got remarried (although I don’t believe my great grandmother ever divorced him), had other children and when he died?

Hi Sandra,
It could be tricky finding out more about Mr Joyce's later life. Electoral rolls might help,but I haven't a clue how to access them.
His earlier life seems a little tricky,too,as his mother appears never to have married.

Thanks Maureen,
It's probably a bit too much to expect at this time anyway, especially as I'm only just figuring out what needs to be done to find out things about past family members (and I shouldn't be relying on other people to do all the hard work!!).
Still, what you have supplied is very interesting to know and I'm thankful to you, along with the other members here, who have been able to help me with all this information I have so far.
Sandra
