Trying to find a Kenneth Robinson, from Ibstock in Leics. As far as I know he was still alive in 2014, age 94. He is I believe now living somewhere in or around Loughborough. If someone can help in locating him I would appreciate it very much.

Hi Barry

A bit of a tricky one as the surname Robinson is quite common.

Born 1920 then ?...........have you managed to pinpoint his exact birth registration to see if he might have a middle name ?

Edit:: You say........."from Ibstock in Leics".........was he actually born there??

This free site might help........

Do you have any other information about him that might help?

What more do you know about him?

There are two of that name in Loughborough with dif ladies living with them

Both tho only go to 2014 so sadly may have since passed away from then

Sadly there are a number of Kenneth Robinsons, with and without middle names who have died in the last couple of years,

Barry I assume you haven't any further info on Kenneth since your 2014 thread? http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/living_relatives/thread/1335991

There are not that many births 1919/1921 in Leics area ( not sure which area would cover Ibstock?)

I'd make a guess at this one as closest to 1920

Births Dec 1919 (>99%)
Robinson Kenneth J Payne Leicester 7a 314

possible from probate?


ROBINSON KENNETH JAMES 22 November 2013 4193069 04 September 2013 Grant and will Oxford

Don't have a lot of info on him, mum said he was about 7 years older than her. He was a family secret and I only found out for sure when my dad passed away. The surviving parent was then to tell me about my biological father. Thank you for your help so far, I will have to chat to mum and see if she can remember anything more about Kenneth.

There is no death obit announcement in the Loughborough Echo over the last year for that name.
