Hi Max, daughter (my mum) Doris, i have some information on them, Margaret Jane died 19th June 1930 and Thomas died 13th December 1937, dont have any info where they were born, but they married in Llandudno, so maybe Welsh?
Thanks.

Mar qtr 1912 Thomas Gardner to Margaret Jane Williams looks the most likely marriage
Llandudno came under Conway Registration District
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:26CF-KSW
if it is the correct marriage and she was Margaret Jane Williams - there are only 2 with that name in the census the year before looks like she is with her mother aged 40
looking at census results Margaret Jane Williams was 22 when she married and was born in Festiniog,Merionethshire ................
added - do you know Margaret Jane Gardner maiden name - if so ,could you post it please ....I cant find a Doris Gardner with MMN Williams - so my post now looks wrong unless Doris is Dorothy E Gardner b 1917 Chester

ok I have found your mums baptism at St John The Evangelist,Knotty Ash,Liverpool
400 Queens Drive ( nice house - I live about 5 miles away )...
2 years later a brother John at the same church but now in 23 Fairford Crescent ..
do I have the right family ?
which district was Margaret Jane Williams death registered in ? june 1930

Can't really add anything at the mo to Garstonite's splendid findings.
Garstonite - was Doris actually Dorothy?

so do I have the right Margaret Jane Williams born 1889/90 in Festiniog ?
-
Not sure if that is the right Margaret Jane because i dont know where she or her husband was born, hopefully with some more research i can find that out.
Thanks
