trying to find the death of my GGF
He was born Joseph Davies 1875 in Cwmavon Wales (parents Thomas & Martha)
He married a Mary Ellen Williams 04/10/1906 in Merthyr Tydfil
I have him living in Cardiff in 1938 (on my grandfathers marriage cert)

A marriage certificate generally only shows the address of the bride & groom. Does it give an occupation for him
Hi yes sorry just realised that, yes occupation retired engine driver
Thanks Sarah

Are you looking for deaths in Cardiff, and ignoring others in the rest of the country?

Did he have any other children, so that he may have died at their homes?

When was Mary Ellen born?  (Age from marriage certificate or 1911 census?)

Yes I am aware of another son Dilwyn Davies born 1908, there were definately more children but born after 1911
Mary Ellen age on marriage certificate 27
Thanks Sarah

His marriage shows him just as Ernest, is the additional name from Arthurs birth certificate   :-\

Do you have Arthur and his mother in 1911 - was Ernest in the Army

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X7KR-1DJ
Hi Rosie I only have a copy of Arthurs birth certificate which was requested in 1972 and only has Arthurs details on, no parents listed.

On Ernests marriage cert his profession is soldier and his resisdence at time of marriage was The Barracks Tauton.
Couldnt fiind them on the 1911 census.
Thanks Sarah
