Hello Wincho & welcome to Rootschat.
Why is Carol's 1905 info. "a bit early" he would have been 24 at the time.Do you know his father's name,if so you may have to send for the marr. cert.

You will find a Bulkington contact on the following site who also covers Nuneaton and worth a shout. I doubt though that your Tom married in Bulkington.

A Tom Smith married in Warwick District in December 1911 and two in the next few years, 1913 and 1915, in neighbouring Hinckley, only five miles from Nuneaton. I could try the electors lists but with such a common name there would be no proof of the right man.
