Ken, to be absolutely sure you need to check certificates. This is possibly his parents marriage:

Ken, sorry if I'm being blonde but if he was born in 1930 he wouldn't be on the 1911. Or do you mean his father?

If you mean his father, what else do you know about him?

Stuck again! Can anyone tell me how to approach this one? I am looking for Joseph Sandford born in 1930 Merthyr Tydfil. His father was also Joseph.
His mothers maiden name was o'neill but this appears to be of no help .I have found his marriage cert and the name was Sanford without the T.
Can someone check where he might be in 1911.
So, it is Joseph Sandford or Sanford, Merthyr, 1911.
Thanks to you all in advance,
Ken
