I am trying to find Edith Grace Collins born in the registration District of Brentford, but believe she lived in Acton, West London. She was born in 1907 and had a younger brother Walter. They grew up in Kent. Her mother was Emily Needham born around 1879 and her father Percy Stephen (Hanson) Collins born around 1882, and came from Kent. They had shops in the Acton Area, I think Acton Lane. There was a newspaper article about the shop as they used to have a chatty parrot by the counter. Walter married Eva, they had a son but he died very young. Edith married Reginald Sanders in 1931. We believe Reginald Sanders died maybe June 1952? They lived in Southall, Middlesex. Edith Sanders died in 1992. They had three children, Percy B 10/06/32, Vivian B 8/04/35 & Ronald B 24/02/45. If you recognise any of these details pls get in touch, I have no parents, my children have no Grandparents. My family tree stops with me now, and i want my children to have some idea of their family history. Thanks
