Default Thoughts

A Market Gardener would have been a nice, relaxing job post-war I would have thought...but could have included greenhouse work, veg-growing, etc. Or flowers! What is the date of the marriage certificate?

My suggestion is that you contact the Royal British Legion at British Legion Hall, which was in Victoria Grove, Bridport, and one number I found which may give you a lead is 01308 420804. I am however having terrible difficulty in finding any contact address/number for the Legion there! It may be just a small branch. They would surely know of the gentleman if he was a member, and may have his service number on file (required to join I gather from my dad).
