Hello - hope you can help me find the birth details of these two

Arthur Willoughby Dewey (b 1874 Yorkshire) married Lilly Dewey (b 8.4.1873 Bromley) on the 22.6.1898 in Bromley Kent.

Then my problems start!

Their children were Alan, Geoffrey, Guy, Ursula, Queenie and Dorothy Violet - Dorothy Violet's DOB is 12.6.1917 but I am unable to locate any record of her birth or her siblings?

I am particulary interested in Dorothy Violet Dewey - I am also unable to find her marriage details to a Mr Harvey c 1940s

Please can any one help?

thanks

Thank you all so very much - sorry for the errors - it appears the names of these great aunts and uncles are constantly swapping

Now I just need to find May Dewey and Daphne Dewey who were apparantly sisters related to the Dewey clan

Thanks again
