Trying to find Davis

Hi, Hoping somebody might be able to help me here. I am looking for a lady whos maiden name was Vera Audrey Lillian Davis. I think she was born in 1924. Don't know where though unfortunately. Now the reason I am looking for this lady is that she married my grandfather George William Gillett on the 6th of August 1945 in St Martins Church in Canterbury, Kent. She was 21 at the time and he was 19. They later divorced but I don't know when. but it must have been before 1952 as that is when he married my nan. Her dads name was Thomas Henry Davis and as a profession he was a thatcher. They lived in The Cottage, Woodlands, and I think the place name is Godmersham. She may have married again? I don't know. I have only just found out that my grandfather was married before he married my nan. Any information from anyone would be greatly appreciated. I have a bit more information now thanks to an email I recieved from someone. I think she was born in July/September 1924 in Bridge, Kent. Her mothers maiden name was Rogers. Someone else has now sent me an email telling me that she also had a brother.He would be 5 years older than his sister. DAVIS Sutton T F mothers maiden name Rogers registered at Bridge.2a 1483 3rd qtr 1919. Hopefully the more information on here the easier it may be to find them. Thanks to the people who have helped me with this extra information. I've managed to do a bit more digging regarding Vera Davis and I have found that she re-married in Jan,Feb,Mar of 1951 to one Frederick D Warden in Canterbury. Hopefully the name Warden May ring a bell with someone! Without the marriage cerificate I can't tell you much more. I believe if the records are correct that they had a child in Canterbury in Jan,Feb,Mar 1956. His name is Clive S Warden. Regards Gareth Harding
