What details would you like to know?
Looking at FreeBMD
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl
there is no birth for a John with that middle name -- is AUBURY spelled correctly?
There is a marriage for a Peter Bunyan in Marylebone district, 1892.
Are you looking for what your grandfather did after the 1930s?
Do you have the names of all his children? (They can be found in the index at Ancestry, if not.)

I'm unable to find a John Bunyan + Catherine Couchman marriage in 1925 in Kent, in the index, or anything that looks like it.
There are two Bunyan-Couchman births, 1925 and 1930.
Is there any chance he was already married?
Name: Millicent V M Gabbey Spouse: John A Bunyan Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1921 Registration district: Fulham Registration county (inferred): London Volume Number: 1a Page Number: 751
Or do you have his approx age / father's name from his marriage certificate?
I'm wondering about this birth:
Births Jun 1895 Aubury John Henry P St.Saviour 1d 178
-- P for Peter, parents unmarried?
And possibly this subsequent marriage?
Marriages Dec 1899 > Aubury Florence Edith J St. Saviour 1d 8 Jeffrey John Tarver St. Saviour 1d 8 Ridley Alice Maria St. Saviour 1d 8 Taylor Frederick John St. Saviour 1d 8
Births Dec 1871 Aubury Florence Edith J Lambeth 1d 419
The only Peter Bunyan in the censuses was born c1835.
(Oh, and if you would be so kind as to turn off your capitals key and not type in all caps, ta!)

Ancestry fails spectacularly!
For reasons I can't even begin to guess, Ancestry will not produce that marriage (I did try Kath* ...)
And of course, if I'd been looking for the birth of someone born 1893/94 in 1878, I might have done better.

pm recieved
Grandfather Is John Aubrey 32 yr old married Kathleen Winifred Couchman 23 yr old married on 24th November 1925 ( Have Marriage Cert) Registry Office, Hollingbourn.
John was Farm Labourer and Kathleen was a General Labourer.
Both were at that time, from West Street ,Harrietsham, Kent
My father was Harold Malcom James and my Aunt was name Yolande. Hope this gives you a bit more idea and means alot of things that I have read is feasable
Well that certainly adds up to 1893. There is an error somewhere.
