There certainly are lots of mentions in the newspapers , including in Australia in 1906/7. I found one tiny clue in the Newark Daily Advocate in September 1898 :

"E E Rice has secured for his next seasons revival ... Miss Violet Dene.
 Miss Dene is a younger sister of Cissy Fitzgerald.  " 

Cissy Fitzgerald is with Violet on that 1891 census. It's possible following Cissy might lead somewhere.
Birth record for Cissy -

Marie Kate Kipping
q3 1872 Blean
Vol 2a Page 722
Mother's maiden name - Edwards

This could be 'Violet Dene'  younger sister of the above-

Julia Maud Mary Kipping
q4 1874 Maidstone
Vol 1a Page 605
Mother's maiden name - Edwards

;D

Hope I’m not duplicating information about Violet's sister Cissy apologies if this has already been posted

This could be Julia Maud Mary Kipping/Lindsay's (Violet Dene) death -

Julia M M K V Lindsay
Death Age - 74
Birth Date - abt 1875
Registration Date - Dec 1949
Registration district - Chanctonbury
Inferred County - Sussex
Vol 5h Page 459

Julia/Violet's sister Cissy/Kate died in Sussex, also their mother. Perhaps 'clutching at straws' but worth considering.

James Lindsay died out in Australia in 1928

https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/3933153?searchTerm=%22james%20lindsay%22%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20&searchLimits=l-decade=192

The birth details (date & location) do seem to fit, as there's a James Lindsay, actor on 1901 the right age and born CLovelly. Not sure sure aout the parentage as his purported father died nearly 8 months earlier in Chile
