could not find them in 1921

Two names redacted so maybe Stanley?

There are no Tidman/Davis/Davies births from 1920

  We have a photo of Stanley and is says a cousin on my wife’s mother, that is all we have

 Do not have a marriage certificate

Relation   Daughter
Father   William Davies
Mother   Elizabeth Davies
Where born   Llanfihangel Abergwessin, Breconshire, Wales
Civil parish   Llanfihangel Abergwessin

William and Elizabeth Davies are names in the family tree

Not finding a birth reg for Stanley that fits..could he be adopted?  No idea

One possible birth to couple, name removed as may still be living

Births Mar Q 1937 
Tidman   mmn Davies    Bridgend 11a 863   This might be the 2nd child on the 1939 register with Stanley


Is Stanley still living? There is this birth  Do not know

Births Jun Q 1931 
Tidman Stanley W mmn Phillips Newport M. 11a 390    The Phillips name is not in the family records but Davies is

Which would likely be this possible couple

Marriages Sep  Q 1928   

Phillips    Dorothy P    Tidman    Newport M    11a   369   
Tidman    William H    Phillips    Newport M    11a   369   

I have hit a “brick wall” with my search for Ethel Mary Davies born 17 Feb 1900 in Builth Wells.

I have found a 1920 marriage in Builth to a Cecil P Tidman born 12 May 1896 in Rhayder for a Ethel M Davies.

I am hoping these are the parents of a Stanley Tidman who would have been born around 1928-1933. I have not found a record for him but have a family photo when he was around the age of 2.

If Ethel M Davies is the mother of Stanley I would like to find her parents and siblings on the 1901 census and again along with Stanley on the 1939 register, but I cannot find them.

This then can confirm I have the correct Davies family before sending for certificates.

Hi Lizzie

Thanks for your message. I have got no further since my post on Samuel Adams beyond the information in your post. When he left the army in Portsmouth he moved to Penarth Vale of Glamorgan by Cardiff. It was here in the local cement works where he fell to his death.

The problem with finding any further information like a birth certificate etc is I suspect Samuel
 Adams was nor the name he was born with.

Anything you can find would be fantastic as this brick wall does not want to come down

Thanks again for taking an interest
