Thanks Nanny Jan and Jebber this looks like we could be onto something.  I'll follow up the Warwickshire RL Singleton.  You're very very kind!  I've ordered the marriage certificate from the GRO now that I have a date and a location so hopefully I'll be able to trace the parents too.

Thank you both for these tips - I'll try to order the marriage certificate.  I've been using ancestry.co.uk but I can't find their marriage on FreeBMD anywhere but will keep trying.  Without knowing a place of marriage, or the place of birth for Elizabeth Danks, I'm really stuck to pin them down. 

Should I perhaps contact the Bournemouth register office to see if I can find details of my great grandfather from the birth certificate of my grandfather, as I am fairly sure he was born in Bournemouth?

Dorset / Singleton Family Bournemouth

I am seeking information on my grandfather Robert Leslie Singleton's family.  His father was also Robert Leslie Singleton and his mother was Elizabeth Singleton nee Danks.  My grandfather was born 19.1.1920 in Bournemouth and he had two older sisters, Wyn and May.   I believe his father was from somewhere around Kidwelly in Wales and that his mother was also from elsewhere in the UK.  All have since left Dorset and my grandfather and his sisters are no longer with us and I cannot find any documentation to help me with tracing their parents' families.  If anyone can help please let me know!
