    CWGC website shows that he was the son of the late Major H. C. Wilkinson; husband of Gladys Mary Wilkinson (nee Rowlands). Served in the South African war. Medal Roll Index Card gives an address: 14 Chapel Park Road, St Leonard's on Sea. Major Henry Chandler Wilkinson was in residence at Plas Newydd Hall, Denbighshire in 1881 aged 46 and described as Retired from the Army. Sidney was then aged 3, born in Gillingham, Dorset. His baptism record of 9th September 1877 shows that he was born at Wyke Hall, Gillingham, Dorset and that his mother was Eleanor Lydia Grey (des Voex). The property still exists, although it has been sub-divided search.struttandparker.com/residential/wyke-hall-gillingh...

    Best Match from 1901 census.
    1901 Census records him, 10 years old [b. 1891, Llechryd, Cardiganshire] living with his parents Benjamin [b.1853, Llandugwydd, Cardiganshire] and Anne [b. 1860, Eilgerran, Pembrokeshire] and his younger sister, Mary [b. 1893, Llechryd, Cardiganshire]. The address of the home is the Tivy Side Inn, his father being recorded as the inn-keeper. The premises survived until 1934 when it was demolished although it had not been a public house since 1930, having been closed under the auspices of the 1910 Licensing (Consolidation) Act, a re-hash of the Licensing Act 1904. Compensation was paid to the owner of the premises and the licensee for the removal of the license and the closure of the premises.
    Below is an overlay of a 1906 map onto a Google Earth screen-shot of the location of the premises with two turn of the century photographs of the premises one showing a stage-coach the other show the premises view from across the river Tivy. Click on the picture for a large version.
