Jonathan Holme died at the age of 64 on Friday, May 22, at a property on Pearl Mill Close near Alexandra Park
Now, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) are appealing to members of the public to help them track down Mr Holme’s next of kin.
GMP said there are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of Mr Holme.
In UK law, there is no definition of next of kin, but it is understood to be the closest relative, whether a partner, parent, child or sibling.
Anyone with information about the next of kin of Mr Holme is urged to contact the Police Coroner’s Office in Rochdale on 0161 856 8095.
