MY grandfather - who was in the Australian Light Infantry enlisted in Melbourne in 1915.  Fought the war in Europe visited his family in Wales, and then returned to Australia.   He then returned to the UK in (I think 1920) and married my grandmother - they did not return to Australia .

I had always thought that he had left the Australian Army in the UK and then returned until I found his war record and saw that he had returned to Australia.  I knew that they had married in 1921 so then trawled the passenger lists between 1919 (when he arrived back) and 1921 when he married and found him !.
Perhaps its worth looking through the passenger lists for Llewelyn

Hi
Reason for asking where the 'Anwyl' came from, was that it suggested that there was a connection with the 'Anwyl' family. There is. For time being I'll try to set up a link to 'Dictionary of Welsh Biography' ; don't know if it will work ! Have info on the Lloyd Hart family and their connection with the Welsh gentry.
