I don't know if this is the right person, but I just looked on findmypast.com. An Alfred Tomlinson, born in Sheffield on 14 April 1918, died in Sheffield in July 1985. The 1973 Kelly's Directory lists only one Alfred Tomlinson, at 117 Dobcroft Road.

No - Kelly's had a separate "Commercial & Professional" list, which doesn't mention an Alfred Tomlinson. I looked in the list of "private residents". I have never understood what Kelly's meant by "private residents" (not all residents are listed) but here's an edited scan. Note that there is also an "Alfred E. Tomlinson", but the 1918-1985 one did not have a middle name. http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u219/twigmore/Tomlinson.jpg
