Thanks for your help.I will try the family trees and contact the people you mentioned.Fingers crossed.
Hi Paul & welcome to Rootschat.
I found two member trees on Ancestry concerning this family.  One owned by Carolyn Harley & one by Gordon Nunn.  I think you can send them a message even though you might not be a member!  Carolyn seems to have a close link to Robert so I would try her first.  How amazing you have these personal effects, I would be thrilled to receive an email such as yours  :)
If you have any trouble contacting these tree owners, let us know as one of us will try for you,

Jane
