I am trying to find out any information on the above. Jane was my great grandfather's sister and they came from the Gillingham area of Dorst. Robert and Jane had two sons William 1897 and Henry 1899.

I am wondering where the boys were born and what happened to them.

Someone with the 1901 census may be able to post that info for you.
