I can find nothing in the records for Robina


There does not seem to be a Robina Lloyd Pearson in the birth, marriage or death listings on ancestry (1916-2005), nor in any family trees on there

Can't find anything yet on Robina but came across this 'little bit':

Hi could anyone please help me find any information on Lloyd Pearsons family. He was quite a well known actor and had a daughter Robina 1937. I dont know who he married. I am still trying to find Robina Pearson or her nephew John A McDonagh. John was born in Bierley Yorkshire to Florice(nee pearson) and James A McDonagh in 1935. I have drawn a blank so far and would really apppreciate any help. Kind regards. Ali

Thank You....I was wondering when Robina went to quebec canada 27th june 1958 did she take a baby with her called Russell or John. There were rumours that she had a baby with a canadian GI and took him there to try and form a family. Any info would be brilliant. Thanks Ali

She was single and appeared to be travelling alone!

Do you think this might be the correct one then??

Dea x

This does not make sense!

You said originally that Robina would be about 70 now which fits with the one I found.

However, she cannot be the sister of Florice and the daughter of Lloyd + Ada as there is too big an age gap??

Unless he married again and she is a half-sister to a much younger wife??

What other info do you have please?

Dea x

Am I missing something, Dea? Surely Florice would be Robina's aunt - isn't she Lloyd's sister?
