VICCIwasVictoria, the only information from the drivers licence is the name Robert Davis; drivers licence number + 3 different addresses. No Date of birth is listed. I don't have any other information about Violet parents except that her father was Robert Davis & that she was possibly one of 7 children .....

The information about George Alfred Rolinson I have is yes had one brother named Sidney born 1913 died approx. 2004. Parents were Ralph Douglas Rolinson approx born 1875 & Elizabeth Ada Murfitt approx born 1877; they married 04/04/1909.

I have the death certificates of George Alfred & Violet Winifred Rolinson + marriage certificate of Ralph & Ada Rolinson.

That is all the info I have of either side of my fathers. Really wanting to find out if there were other siblings etc

Regards
Clare

Thank you Julie for the search info; greatly appreciated. I did already have George parents names. I was hoping someone may possibly have information on my grandmother's siblings but as you say I would need to buy credits to look at the 1911 census.

Thanks again, Clare.

HOUSEHOLD DAVIS VIOLET WINIFRED F 1908 3 Wandsworth London

but there is not a 'Robert' with her.

You would have to buy credits and look at the record to see who the family is.

Hi, I am currently tracing my father side of the family ... At this stage all I have is my grandparents names:

Violet Winifred Davis
DOB 20/10/1907 Islington
Died 31/12/1980
Father: Robert Davis

George Alfred Rolinson
DOB: 27/02/1911
Died: 14/03/1984

Any information of Violet parents & siblings would be greatly appreciated. I would like to get in touch with any relatives of Violets siblings to see if they have any old photos or information about my grandparents etc as I don't have anything ?

Aslo, I have Violet's fathers Driver Licence dating back to 1915. Is there anything I could use from this to help in searching for other information about my great grandparents??

Regards
Clare
