Cyril straw born 23/3/1908 in Bullwell trying to find his first wife no ideas of Marrage date would have probably been somewhere between 1928 and 1940

If you know the names of any children born to the first marriage you can use freebmd to look up their birth which will give you the mothers maiden name.
You can then use that info to search freebmd for the marriage

Death posted for Minnie was 1945, so did he marry again before he married your Mother?
