I'm trying to find my paternal grandparents who lived in Caldicot, nr. Chepstow Monmouthshire. They had a large family of 13 children and my father, Roy, was one of the eldest and he was born in 1910.

Some of these would be your dad's siblings I expect?

If you think this is their marriage then you need to order the marriage certificate - that will give you the extra info you need to find them in the censuses.

Type MONFAMILIES into any search engine - it will take you to a site where you can view the Parish Records and ask for help - you will need to join (free) and tell the group what you are interested in - lots of help available.
