The marriage certificate for Joan & Trevor Richard Leighton RHYDDERCH has arrived so I'm adding it here for future reference.

Thanks again for helping me to find out more about Joan & her husband.

Joan married Trevor Richard Leighton RHYDDERCH on 27th August 1940 at the Register Office in Dunmow, Essex.

Joan EMERY, spinster aged 29, living at Brick Cottage, Hatfield Broad Oak, daughter of Hubert EMERY, a Baker married Trevor Richard Leighton RHYDDERCH, formerly the husband of Daisy RHYDDERCH formerly HOSKEN (widow) from whom he obtained a divorce, aged 48, a Retired Bank Clerk, living at Brick Cottage, Hatfield Broad Oak, son of Richard RHYDDERCH (deceased), an Inspector of Schools. The marriage was witnessed by William E.H. RHYDDERCH & Ethel L. RHYDDERCH.

The witnesses were Trevor Richard Leighton’s brother William Edmund Hodges RHYDDERCH & his wife Ethel Louise.

Thanks for posting his rank for me FannyByGaslight. I think that either this is a different TRL Rhydderch or that it is the same one & that he changed regiments.

The reason I conclude that is due to the information I posted yesterday:-
London Gazette, 4 September 1914:-
5th Battalion, The South Staffordshire Regiment; the undermentioned to be Second Lieutenant, dated 5th September 1914 - Trevor Richard Leighton Rhydderch (to be supernumerary).

That would mean that he was an officer from almost the start of the war (unless he was later demoted of course).

Many thanks for those additions LadyKira.

I'd noticed that there was that military record but I haven't got any credits left to obtain a copy of the scan & £7 for one download is a bit too much as I don't need any more downloads at the moment :-(

I wonder what a "C of Hussars" is. I suppose a corps of hussars but I always thought that cavalry was organised into squadrons. Maybe Captain?

I was wondering whether the card had any details of his rank?

After a bit of 'googling' I've discovered that Trevor's brother was indeed a 'Sir'.
William Edmund Hodges RHYDDERCH Esq., Secretary and Commissioner, Board of Customs and Excise, was made an Additional Member of the Civil Division of the Third Class, or Companion, of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath on 13th June 1946.

I also discoverd that their cousin Oliver Graham Sutton, son of Oliver Sutton (headmaster of Cwmcarn Elementary School) & Rachel Sutton (née Rhydderch) was a "distinguished applied mathematician & science administrator, notable particularly for his fundamental theoretical work on atmospheric diffusion and boundary layer turbulance and for his direction of the Meteorological Office from 1953 to 1965".

It's amazing what you can find on the world wide web!

Crikey!! That's a lot of information already!!

Thank you to all who have replied. You've been a great help.

So it would appear that Joan's husband was previously married. I shall have to look into that & obtain Joan's marriage certificate now that I have the details.
