Trying to find ancestor

Can anyone help? I am trying to find out any information on a boy in the Royal Navy in WW1 John Travers Cornwell. His parents were Eli and Alice Cornwell some references have her listed as Alice, but others lists her as Lily [nee King]. From what I have found out, he had two sisters and three brothers: Alice (an elder half-sister), Ernest Edward (the eldest brother), Lily (a younger sister), George (a younger brother) and Arthur Frederick. Any information would be a bonus. A living relative would be brilliant. I am trying to do my family tree as my Nan’s maiden name was Cornwell and she married into the King family in London so we are trying to find out if they are related some how. Thanks Linsie
