Stanley David G Brewer born 23 Dec 1922 Birth reg Mar qtr 1923 Bidgend reg district mother's maiden name Dobbs 11a 1705
Death registration Dec qtr 1998 Cardiff
from my research it seems his father was Mafeking George Brewer (on some records he used George as his forename)

Marriage reg FreeBMD
Sept qtr 1921 Bridgend
Mafeking George brewer Anna (sometimes recorded as Annie) M Dobbs

Mafeking George Brewer 11 May 1900 Birth reg Jun qtr 1900 Cardiff

Martha remarried approx 1906/7 to Edwin Lewis (b bargoed)

There is a tree on A*****y which would be worth looking at but check all as I have noticed an error with Frederick's burial

It seems Clifford Brinley Brewer's name was Brinley Clifford Brewer birth reg Sept qtr 1927 Bridgend mother's maiden name Dobbs

Death reg Brinley C Brewer age 37 Mar qtr 1964 Cardiff 8b 170

Hope this gets you started

Brinley C. Brewer b 1927 Bridgend d 1964 Cardiff Mother Dobbs

FreeBMD has no marriage for Brinley C BREWER.  There are two Brinley BREWER marriages (1951 and 1959) but the middle initials are different and they match other Brinley BREWER births.  I think it is fair to say that Brinley Clifford BREWER had no legitimate descendants.

Stanley Brewer of St Fagans Road was the father of my friend, also called Stanley, born 1948. My friend has no knowledge of his family background other than his  father was born in Cathays, Cardiff, so I am spending some time constructing a basic family tree for him.
