Thank you, Kevin.

if you do manage to get the details from the certificate (either from your Aunt, or purchased from the GRO) will you post them on this thread rather than start a new one please. That way the information that has already been found for you won't be duplicated.

Kevin Report 10 May 2010 16:31

ok thankyou i will ask my aunt to see if she has his birth cert his parents

As yet, we haven't ascertained who the father of Albert and Dawn is. It's looking likely that Albert was possibly born prior to the marriage of Charles Avery and Ivy Thomas but without the birth certificate which will verify the names of the parents I'm finding it hard to pin down a marriage with any confidence.


IF the father is Charles Avery then he is in Barnstaple in 1901 but I don't want to post any more information regarding him as I'm not sure he is the correct father yet.

Dawn I Avery born 1934 - Bedwellty registration district - mother's maiden name Thomas - so looks like the same mother as Albert.

No Avery/Thomas matches prior to 1922 in the Bedwellty registration district - but there is this one in 1925

Marriages Mar 1925 (>99%)
Avery Charles P W N Thomas Bedwellty 11a 122
Thomas Ivy L Avery Bedwellty 11a 122


Charles P W N Avery was born in Barnstaple, North Devon

Births Jun 1899 (>99%)
Avery Charles Philip W N Barnstaple 5b 418



Prior to that there is an male Avery with a possible female Thomas marrying in Pontypridd in 1906

Marriages Sep 1906 (>99%)

????AVERY William Pontypridd 11a 949
JOHN Evan Pontypridd 11a 949
LAWN Ellen Elizabeth Pontypridd 11a 949
????THOMAS Sarah Maud Pontypridd 11a 949



No, not this marriage - William Avery possibly married Ellen Lawn - 1911 census shows William Avery married to Ellen for past five years.

AVERY, William Head Married
5 years M 30 1881 Collier Hewer Tonypandy Glam VIEW
AVERY, Ellen Wife Married F 38 1873 Cirencester Gloster VIEW
AVERY, William Son Married M 2 1909 School Tonypandy Glam VIEW

Registration District:
Pontypridd Sub District:
Rhondda Enumeration District:

Rhondda

Address:

In this situation, with no obvious marriage, I would be tempted to buy the birth certificate for verification of Albert's parents.
