Do you have a copy of his marriage cert showing his fathers name?

There are 2 possible 1901 entries - one born 1889 and the other 1891 - both Cardiff.  There are no entries with Llandaff as a birthplace

I'm afraid I have no details apart from William Holloway married Annie Wright from Londonderry about 1910 and he came from Wales. I don't know where they got married.

I'm quite new to searching for info.

I'm pretty sure William O Holloway is my Great grandfather. Would anyone know where William Jenkin went after the death of Ellen E Hallett.

Did he marry Lizzie Browne or Millicent Bovey?

Kind Regards
