My husbands family have surnames as their middle names. They have tended to be from the mothers side. I wonder if Sydney's maternal Grandmother was called Robinson???
Just throwing this into the mix!

The two Ediths died in infancy.

Emily married in Woolwich in 1934

At some point William and Edith split. She re-married in 1942 to Albert Neale. Whether they divorced or not is unknown.
She dies in 1965

William George is still living, He died in 1967

William G Peen

William George left the Army in 1917. Did he go back to Edith? or did he father a child with someone else which resulted in the break-up of his marriage?

There are alot of Sidney / Sydney ROBINSON births.

This one shows NO middle name,
It is the mother's maiden name which is ROBINSON

Births Mar 1923
Robinson Sidney .....Robinson .....Kidderminster 6c 147


Do you know the sister's first name?
I tried looking for PEENs entering Australia, but they are mostly Dutch.

Is there a Robinson marrying a Peen after 1923?

Lima100 Report 21 Feb 2011 19:40

I think you may have stumbled on something RutlandBelle. That would tie in on his date of birth. Robinson is an unusual middle name. Isn't it
