Hi can anyone HELP!

I'm really stuck on this.
Trying to trace my Great grandfathers family.
Unfortunatly my Grandad died in 2000 so have no Evans left to ask.

My Great grandad was born Harry Norman Kenneth Evans 1910 Plumstead, London.

His father was Henry Norman Evans c1885, his mother Ada Blanche Leach 1886. She was born in London and have had no troubles tracing her side of the family.

Unfortunatly I don't no where Henry was born, possibly Wales.
(needle in a haystack)
I have their marriage cert. They married 1st Nov 1909 Woolwich Registry Office.

He is listed as a House Painter (journeyman) living at time of marriage 11 Kashgar Rd, Plumstead.
His father is Listed as Henry Evans (deceased) General Labourer.

If anyone out there can help me find the needle in a haystack i would be very greatful.

Who were the witness's? were they possibly siblings of Henry Norman?

Do you know who Henry Norman's siblings were, this would help in the search....

Why do you believe Henry Norman came from wales?
