Hi all 

Kathleen F V S Heard m. Davis St Martin 1a 256
Q4 1921

The page is 1256 on the image

i did look at the image but must have missed the 1, in my haste to post it!
it still doesnt match Richards though,

[Tati]

Indeed - Richard's is quite as clearly 1250. Well done for finding it!!!

The two names sound to me like they may have been born elsewhere in the Empire and came back to Blighty after WW1.

Maybe a look in the overseas births will be an idea

Just a thought...

Many thanks for the trouble you have all taken on my behalf.
I have obtained info relating to his service during WW1.
He enlisted 2/3/1916
Mobilized 9/1/1918
Medical discharge 5/12/1918.
I can assume from these documents that he had his heart condition since birth and place of origin of disability as Dunedin, New Zealand.
His address given upon discharge was
Dr Lloyd Davies, Glanafon, Haverfordwest, Pembroke.
This, I hope will connect with info received relating to the marriage in 1921.
Should I be able to make a connection between New Zealand and West Wales I will be only too happy to share it with you all.

I have ascertained that Richard Rangi was the son of the eminent physician John Morgan Lloyd Davies of Pitt Street, Dunedin.
John Morgan settled in Port Chalmers in 1881 where he commenced practice and two years later became resident house-surgeon at the Dunedin hospital.
Dr Davies was married to a daughter of Mr Robert McLaren of Dunedin and had three sons and one daughter.
Any help on this family would be appreciated.
TIA,
Bill.
