So the two closed records n 1939 are Edna and Eric. I made an assumption which I should not have

What was Samuel's occupation as per the marriage cert?

Who were the witnesses?

I wonder if you have the correct family for Edward, you are going by aunts/uncles - but Edna also had a sister Lilian (b1909) - and they could also be aunts/uncles by marriage? Is there anything else to tie your Edward to the family you think it is, other than his fathers name of Samuel?

So there will be no record of the family in 1939, as, presumably, Edward was already in the Forces.
