      I found a couple of poss marrs for Sidney (i.e. marrs of a Sidney T. Court). One was to a Dora Whitmarsh in Christchurch RD, 1922.

      I also have a photo of a baby "Douglas", taken in Frome, sent to Mary nee Beaton (died 1933) and addressing her as "grandma" - whether of Douglas or the writer is not clear, but I have no evidence of her having a grandson Douglas (and know of most if not all).

      The Sidney who married Dora Whitmarsh appears to have had 4 children, the first was Douglas b 1923 and whilst born in Portsmouth RD, the next 2 were born in Frome RD. This would seem to point pretty conclusively to this being the right marr.

    With a group of photos which appear to have belonged to Mary Black nee Beaton. "Grandma" in the message on the back would appear to mean "grandma" to the writer, rather than to Douglas. Douglas would appear to be Douglas Court, son of Sidney Tew Court, born 1923 in the Portsmouth area but with siblings born in the Frome area.
