Brother Bertram Robinson born 1896 - also served WW1 - 2nd/6 Manchester Regiment - Regimental Number 50069
There is a marriage Salford Lancashire - 1924 - Bertram Robinson to Doris Warmisham - 8d 35
3 daughters born to this union - 1925 - 1928 - 1933
There were also sisters of Harold, obviously they have passed on and they off spring might not be close enough relations for CWGC.
