Hi,

I am trying to locate my fathers side of the family. The information I have at the moment is that my grandfather name is George Albert Rolinson born 1911, Mile End. Had brother name Sidney Rolinson born 1913. If anyone has any connections / information to my great grandparents, then it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Clare
