Trying to find Gerald William Bunt

[Karytay]

I am trying to find Gerald William Bunt born abt 1903 in Cornwall. Like to know when he came out to South Africa and if he returned to Cornwall later in life? Thanks

Names wrong way around?

Name: William Jerald Bunt
Birth: Jan 1903  - Redruth, Cornwall

Or;
Name: Gerald W Bunt
Birth: Apr 1915  - Bodmin, Cornwall
This one seems to have married  Audrey M CRAPP 1942

Were his Parents William BUNT and Ethel Maud HICK, married 1900?
If so they are not on the 1911 Census.

Trish I think the first one you gave is the Gerald I am looking for. Maybe it suppose to be Jerald William. Thanks for parents names will see what I can find about them. Just wondering if they emigrated to South Africa that is why they are not on the 1911 census?

For William got married in South Africa to Meg Taylor or Margaret Taylor.

So if all three are the same man he was very busy! He divorced Ethal Maud Hick in 1929
Married Eva Blloomfield come Burger born Dover and then divorced her in 1940
Then married for a third time, to Johanna Cornelia de Lange
then he died in 1948 leaving her a widow.

Now I must order the documents. Thanks everyone for your help.
