It is likely that both William and Hannah would be on the 1911 census. If so, this could give leads to their siblings.

Edit : I see that AG has found some options on the census.
The 1935 death suggests that William was born in 1901.

Carol really needs to provide some more information.

Carol -
it's highly unlikely that anyone related to William and Hannah will happen to see your post.

Go to "Search all member trees", under "Search" at top right of this page, and enter names of anyone in your tree. If you find that any other GR member has that person in their tree, click on "Find out more" and send them a message explaining your interest.

No guarantee of a reply, but you may be lucky.


If you would like the helpers here on the boards to try to help, please give us some dates and further information.
Was William your dad? Or grandfather? It's not clear from your post.
What were the siblings' names?
