There are Dexters at 11 Factory Street in 1939
Probably a relative of the Dexters: George Frederick Dexter (1906) and wife Lillian May Knight (1904) both born in Bristol.
There is
Frederick DEXTER, a policeman, born 1876 in Oakham Rutland. Frederick was the son of Topley and Sarah DEXTER of Rutland.

- In 1939, living at 11 Factory Street is his son, Frederick George DEXTER (born 1906 Bristol) along with his wife Lillian KNIGHT (married 1926 Bristol) and family.
Connection to uniformed man in photo, is the name DEXTER and the Bristol address and …….
In the Boer War – in the Cape Police, there was a Fred DEXTER no.890. He attested in June 1895.
I have not been able to find more information on his military service.
Added:
If you can find where the son Frederick George Dexter, age 5, was in 1911 census, it might give you a connection to the Williams or Edwards families.
