Wondering if anyone has any information about my grandparents that come from Wiltshire?

Can you give approx year of birth please? My grandparents were born in the 1880's, but our children's grandparents were born 1920's!

Did they marry in the UK? Nothing is jumping off the page. Could Rene be short for Irene or Renee?

Assuming born in Wiltshire - these births are from FMP

Loveridge Sidney 1895 — 1895 England & Wales Births 1837-2006 Highworth, Wiltshire, England

Loveridge Sidney S 1924 — 1924 England & Wales Births 1837-2006 Malmesbury, Wiltshire, England

Sidney S Loveridge died in 1943 - not picking up a marriage.

There is a mistake on the 1939 reg transcript, the boys are listed with grandparents, whose entry is above the boys parents, Charles and Irene P Loveridge?

Dixon Irene P Loveridge Brentford 3a 445
Loveridge Charlie Dixon Brentford 3a 445

Maybe Sidney is incorrect?

Charlie's birth is given on Register as 11/3/1915

may be this one March 1915 Loveridge Charles F Dayman Poole 5a 414

That's evidently the right one as Pen has on her tree Irene Dixon 1916 but from Wiltshire.

and from tree

Sydney Charles Loveridge 1915 Bushton, Wiltshire ...

so just possibly the F in his birth reg should have been an S and he used middle name?

But neither of them born Wiltshire.
