I have the above born 1919 and was married to a Hannah Mary Hughes in Carmarthen. I see he died 1978.
They had two children,I cannot locate his parents and family. Would anybody be able to help me please.

Only one I can find;

Birth Reg;
June 1918
Coppard,  Horace, Bromley,  2a 863, Mothers mn WEEDON

Have you looked for him on the 1939 Register on Findmypast?

In last Census available look for Ethel Coppard born c 1884 St Mary Cray, Kent.

I can't find him on findmypast 1939. I know he is on there in 1942 on his marriage!!
Makes me curious why he ended up in Wales??

Horace may be in the Military 1939.
Cant find his Father in 1911 Census but he appears to remarry 1924 to Ellen K Barber (FreeBMD)

1939 Register has in Dartford, Kent;
Frederick H Coppard   1883
Ellen K Coppard
4 more people who are officially closed

Someone has a private Tree with the 1924 M/C mentioned.

It may be worth getting that 1942 M/C.

I wonder how he went from Bromley area to Wales. I can't find him anywhere?

 I can't find him anywhere?

Do you mean Horace?

He wouldn't be on the 1911 Census as not born yet. 1939 Register he may be in the Military.
