Known names Edward, James , John, Patrick and William. Eileen and Mary. All were born in England (possible Battersea area). Joseph William Roche married Violet Hinchcliffe in 1940. Edward (born c1909) had at least one daughter and they lived in the Streatham area of SW London. John and possible another brother emigrated to Australia in the 1950s. Joseph & Edward both worked for the Gas Works in Lambeth, London until mid 1960s. Their father Edward Roche (born c. 1879 in Ireland) married a Mary Annie Shipley in 1908. (Edward had several brothers/sisters but names n/known) Mary and some siblings lived on St Helier Estate Rosehill, Sutton, Surrey in the 1960s but possible moved there in the 1940s. Would be great for my husband to contact his long lost relatives.
