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

Buying a copy of the 1932 marriage cert will confirm if his father was Samuel

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