Hello Henery,
I can help you.
Florence Cartwright (of Rotherham) and Robert Imrie Dines were my grandparents. I am a daughter of their son, Robert Imrie Dines (b. 1927 in Brighton, Victoria, Australia). My grandmother, Florence Cartwright, returned to England from Australia with my father shortly after his birth. They lived in Ilfracombe and other towns listed in these posts. My father's father, also named Robert Imrie Dines, was English by birth, migrated to Australia in the 1920's and became a pilot at the rank of Flight Lieutenant in the Royal Australian Air Force. He was killed in an air show for the Duke and Duchess of York (the late Queen Mother) in April 1927, a couple of months before my father was born.
My father is the Robert Imrie Dines whose death is reported in another post above in September 2002 in Swanage, Dorset.
I can give you more info if it would be helpful, and I have some photos of my grandmother too.
Cheers, Sarah
