Hi all
Does anyone out there recognise the following Rogers I have in my tree?

HORACE W ROGERS born 1910 in Boston, Lincs
married
JOAN ETHEL TUMBER born 1917 in London but lived in New Romney, Kent
Children KATHLEEN IRENE ROGERS born 1938 in Stepney and ROSEMARY ANNE ROGERS born 1939 in Hertford.

Horace died in 1956 - the family story goes that he was working on some high scaffolding and fell to his death. Joan had a breakdown and was admitted to Napsbury mental hospital and the children went to live with relatives in New Romney in Kent.

I'd love any info on Kathleen and Rosemary - they are my cousins and were also my godmothers when I was baptised at St Nicholas Church in New Romney.
Thanks
Jacky
