I am trying to find my Grandfather , William Davies, who married Elizabeth Ncholson in 1921 in Hebburn Co Durham, where he lived at that time.. He went to work in India where they lived until he died in 1930 ish. They had one daughter, Ivy - my mother. I was told his family originated from Pontypridd Glamorgan. Can anyone help please?

GUESSING this is on the 1911 census you will need credits to view IF you want to go backwards?

Did William have a middle name?
