I found the record of probate for Arthur which left £45 16s 8d to his widow Jean Kitty.  Her maiden name was Richards.  One child was born to them, Richard S. Spare, June quarter 1949. in Okehampton Devon.  I cannot find a marriage or death for him.

Arthur's father was Samuel Spare who married Lily Tucker (or Milford - she may have been married previously) in the March quarter 1927.
