Pinning it down further. South Wales Its a starting point

FredPuli Diamond Enthusiast 2005 Enthusiast of the Year	Posted Hide Post My guess too ! Said with a Welsh accent and to someone not familiar with the name or accent 'Davies' sounds like 'Daves' and so it is quite likely that an immigration clerk or other official would record it as 'Daves'. Davies is simply 'son of David'. It is one of the commonest names in Wales, probably the commonest after Jones ('son of John')
