There are three other members that have Doris in their tree; the members are Shirley, Jennifer and Robert.

Shirley and Jennifer also have Joyce c1945 in their tree.

I was trying to look for the birth references on FreeBMD as you said early 1900s. However FreeBMD only goes up to 1920s so unfortunately can't help you.

Have you checked to see if anyone has them in their tree on this site?
