To help you further and take the line back in time.

From the Marriage record we are told that George Leonard JONES was 18 and his wife Jane Margaret was 19.
The Civil Registration tells us that Jane should read Jessie:

Marriages Dec 1917
Jones George L Jones Chepstow 11a 21
Jones Jessie M Jones Chepstow 11a 21

Now back to the Marriage transcript:
We have the following witnesses:
G Jones, Ellen Ruth Jones and A.D Jones.
This helps us pinpoint George Leonard in Census returns and here is a transcript of the 1901 Census:
