can anyone help...looking for my husband's grandparents

henry was born about 1900 marring Beatrice Callow on 3/12/1922 aged 22 in Roath parish church and was a 'stoker'. He was a batchelor and his father's name was also Henry employed as a bricklayer. Really struggling with this one. We know nothing about this side of the family...we understand that he died about 1926. His son was called Ronald born 1923.

His wife was Beatrice Callow, father's name Thomas and employed as a 'pointsman'.

The witnesses were Thomas Callow and Violet Edmunds
Thanks for any help

Hi,
Not sure if you know this already but a Pointsman was a railway worker who operated the points to change the line (track) on which the train was travelling.

The witnesses were Thomas Callow

That's incorrect it was Charles Edward Callow (Beatrice's Brother)

I have PM you.
