Local papers in the Whitchurch area certainly seems a pretty good/possibly the best bet now [chances might have been that his parents had moved on to Bath after his death and thus that CWGC entry] M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Posted 6 February , 2022 Share Posted 6 February , 2022 Try Welsh Newspapers Online: https://newspapers.library.wales/ When looking for a newspaper, I'm sure you are aware that Llandaff North & Whitchurch are now integral parts of Cardiff city. In those days, they were big villages in the suburbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
