I believe this is Hendrikis/Hendrikin Bijmolt/Bijnolt named on my father's wedding certificate.
I am not sure who this is

identity
I believe the man on the right is, Hendrikis Bijnolt (Henri Bijmolt?)or similar name. He was a witness at my father's wedding on 23rd January 1943 in Cardiff. His name is on the wedding certificate and he is also in the wedding photo. I have not been able to find any information about him.
