This site's PRs carry more Wadleys in Lydbrook area c1900-1940s, altho unsure how related if at all.

------------------

WARNING NOTE !
Searching Ancestry also shows a different George Henry Wadley living in the same general area; his Will shows he dies 14 Feb 1955, of 41 Australia Rd Cardiff, leaving £1705 to Elizabeth Wadley, widow. Unfortunately no age given.

However I don't think this relates to our George ?.
Both George Henry's Ancestry Death Index Record and the excellent set of father George's WW1 Pension Records both give George Henry's birthdate of 7th October 1907, Bedwelty District, as all previously stated by MPG (who always posts accurately & relevantly, unlike this amateur!).

-----------------

I see the Abertillery coal mines where father George worked c1911 were still being worked into the 1980s, see

However I wonder if son George Henry was also involved in coal mining, given his passing-away in the important mining area of Clifton, Nottingham ? See
