Hi Diesel
I have access to Ancestry BMD Indexes. If it's likely your person has died and you have an age for them it would be fairly straightforward to search for a likely death record then apply for a death certificate to give their last residence.
If they are still living I could at least give you the likely reference to apply for a birth certificate - it might help with locations to search. PM me with the name and I'll see if I can help.0
