Ancestry's marriage index is on the fritz, but this is the only Gladys BK Wills:

Name: Gladys B K Wills
Date of Registration: QJan-Jan-Feb-Mar 1938
Registration district: Hammersmith
Registration county (inferred): London
Volume Number: 1a
Page Number: 430
Find Spouse: Find Spouse

Find spouse doesn't work but the image says the spouse was Stoddart, and it's Q1.

Do you know they married?

Ricochet is right, you really need a location - however broad - just in case she did not use initials, for example. Far too many Gladys Willses!

Just to note there's only the one birth with matching initials as well, and the birth fits the time frame for the marriage:

Name: Gladys B K Wills
Mother's Maiden Surname: Kenniford
Date of Registration: Jul Aug Sep 1918
Registration district: Pembroke
Registration county: Wales
Volume Number: 11a
Page Number: 2378

Ah, okay, John, that was easier than I thought.


The PM received from John - easiest for me to just copy it here:


From John hi this is the person ,mothers name kiniford
she was from pembroke wales
she died in 1993 in isslington london
my grandfarther was from london meet her when he was in the army in pembroke.
she is my step grandmother after a devors in 1947 tit looks like they went back to london to live
he died in 1973 thats the how i gave the years
they could have got married in wales before moving on many thanks john


Glad that helped, shout if anything more is needed!



edit - I don't quite understand that - she would have been Stoddart when she married Jones?

Do add anything that would clarify if you like, John!
