When I spoke to Ron before he died he said his dad Sidney only had two sisters and that he didn't know of any other others.

Has anyone got any suggestions as to how I can find anythng as Ron's birth certificate does say Sidney Skeates but that is all we have to go on.

Ron was born on 3rd Jan 1931 as Rnald Douglas Brown, father Sidney Skeates and I can't find anything at all.
Both were from London and Sidney was from Battersea area.
I think he was born about 1904

Unfortunately there are no daughters with the names you mention so i doubt it is this one

I wonder if Clarie is Nellie and not Clarissa and Sissy Louie?
I know I'm clutching at straws but it is a possibility.

All I know is that Ron called his aunts Aunt Clari and Aunt Sissie
but bear in mind he hadn't seen them after the age of about 14 I guess so he might remeber their names wrong. Unfortunately Ron died recently and this was all he could ever tell me anyway.

They were definately from London Battersea area as Ron and in turn his son (my partner) were born in the same area then in Hammersmith.
