Is that your tree on Ancestry, Pam, showing Nancy's mother as Susan Thain, 1897 -1989 ?

Another tree calls her Susannah.

That looks like a good possibility, Alviegal.

Can't prove anything, but maybe John Reynolds strayed into the path of Miss Thain in late 1916 or early 1917, which would make Thomas John Nancy's half-brother.
(Would they have been close enough for him to be a witness at her marriage ??)

I think you may have to buy a copy of Nancy's birth cert, Pam, and hope that her father is named - and find out her mother's first name.

Possible 1911 for your Thos John, AG? Parents had been married 9 years, 2 children born but only 1 still living.

Possibly Thos J, if he's her brother or brother-in-law, and if he was born in Llangeler area:

Births Sep 1908 (>99%)
Reynolds Thomas John Newcastle E. 11b 11


Can't see him in 1911, though.
