This looks like his birth ref:
Births Mar 1917  WILLIAMS  William D J  MMN Thomas  Brecknock  11b 102

Only marriage I can find within timescale, surrounding area, does this ring any bells?

Marriages Dec 1914   
Thomas  Gwendoline  (married Williams)  Swansea  11a 2063   
Williams  Benjamin E  (married Thomas)  Swansea  11a 2063

It just shows after about 1912/13 who married who on the index, this is from:

Dates are up to about 1920's

You were enquiring about my father.
Only just saw this today because my cousin was browsing.
Are you a relation? Couldn't help but notice you also had my Mum's family name listed. I have all Mum's family photos since she passed away that you might be interested in.
