We will be interested in learning what the marriage cert says.

I have William Ledster living at 1 Penybanc Cottages, Swansea(Code X11C), Borough of Swansea, Reg. Dist. 594-2. The 1939 Reg. Ref. is RG101/72921.
Entry 192 has 1) Thomas, Joseph.  Mar.  3 Dec 1872 (Public Works Labourer)

                      2)Thomas, Elizabeth. Mar.  17 Feb 1876.

                      4) Ledster, William.  Mar. 12 May 1895  (Colliery Labourer)

This was at the bottom of the page, and it shows him as married. Elizabeth was the eldest sister of William. She was the daughter of John Augustine Ledster and Elizabeth Lewis. I'm not sure if Ethel was on the next page or not.

Thanks John, I was looking there but was also expecting to find him with Joseph & Elizabeth Thomas as mentioned on the earlier post  :)  Will have a look again now.
