Wendy - are you saying he married during WW2? the marriage certificate would show his Navy number which could help you. I suppose you have no idea what your gt grandmothers maiden name was?

Wendy - this may be the marriage

Thomas E Whyley married Elsie M Gee Nottingham Mar quarter of 1941 vol 7b page 745.

However not sure if Nellie is another name for Elsie so not entirely sure this is the right one!

Hi again Wendy - are you about?

Was your grandmothers name Ann or Joan Whyley? If so then the marriage I found was right - can you please let me know.

Edith Emily Judson married Frederick Judson 1905 at Grantham
other children they had besides Thomas E in 1914 Gratham
were Joseph H 1912 Grantham
Doris M 1920 Nottingham.
Perhaps decendents of the other 2 children could help you. Good luck Irene
