Trying to find my maternal grandfather George E Lewis.
I know he was born in Sevenoaks Kent in 1886 and was employed at the age of 14 as a page boy at an hotel in Folkestone Kent. He married Minnie Kimble and had a daughter Kathleen and a son Jack. I have not been able to find any further information. Would appreciate any information.
