Default Victor Cyril Roberts

My thanks to the group for filling in a bit of my family tree. Victor Cyril Roberts was my Grandmothers Brother. The family in Amble were
John Hooson Roberts (Father)
John Roberts (Son)
Adelaide Roberts (Daughter)
Charlotte Gwladys (Daughter)
Jeannie Roberts (Daughter & my Gran)
Thomas Owen Roberts (Son)
Robert G D Roberts (Son killed on the somme)
Hugh Roberts (Son)
Victor Cyril Roberts (Son)

Hugh was married to a French lady called Illot or similar, his daughter Pamela Roberts attended the Duchess School, and eventually joined ENSA and starred along side Jack Hawkins entertaining the troups in India. I believe there was some story of his wife attempting to snatch Pamela from the Medd school when they divorced.
Adelaide and Gwladys were active in the local amateur dramatics, they never married. I believe it was John that married the bishop of Durhams daughter but I never actually found the connection, he may have gone to Australia.
Jeannie came to Huddersfield where she met my Grandfather.
Thanks again for filling in a few holes.
