My wife's grandfather was Ivor Thomas Bowditch, born 1913 near Pontypool, Wales. From his birth certificate I know his father was Henry Thomas Bowditch and mother was Emma Jane Lewis, this is where I am stuck, does anyone know of either of them?

Hi Nicholas
I have a Mary Bowditch in my tree born in 1775 in Usk
She married a Thomas Bayton in Trevithin which is
1/2mile from Pontypool I wonder if there is any family connection to your grandfather as I have no other information on her. I only found your message because I was browsing and I see from the date it was quite a while ago you were enquiring.
Regards
Clare
