According to this record https://www.devilsporridge.org.uk/hm-factory-gretna-workers-database/name/david-sim
Violet had another sibling called David Humphrey Sim, who was born in 1920 and died in 1921 only a month or so after Violet was born. His death is recorded in Morningside, mother's maiden surname Atkinson. That was where the family were found in the 1921 census, taken only about three weeks after his death.

In 1921 Violet might be in Morningside with her mother Margaret and older brother Leslie Moscrop Sim

On the results page the following are at ref 685/767/8 - you would obviously need to check the original.

James Sim aged 64
Annie Sim aged 54
Margaret Sim aged 25
Violet Sim aged 22
Charles Sim aged 18
Leslie M Sim aged 3
Violet Sim aged 0-1

I see that in 1939 Violet is entered as ‘Sim Scott, Violet’.
I think, judging by her 2001 death record (surname French), Sim was her middle name.

I don’t see anything yet on SP for her birth.

Nicky, please forgive this question - what evidence do you have that Violet was John and Ruth's daughter, apart from the fact that she was with them on the 1939 register, when relationships weren't shown?

Perhaps you have evidence from marriage certificates, in which case please forgive my question  :)

JenB, I did see reply#6 and had 6 spare credits so had a look.

So was my deduction about the family correct - all of them minus Violet?

If Ruth was born in Wykeham, York, and John in Cummertrees then they are in Dornock, Dumfries in 1921.

Oh no, Correction - all those people are there APART from Violet  :-[
There is a Violet in Dornock but she's at different reference number from the others.
The Scotts (John, Ruth etc) are all reference 819/4/16

Violet Scott is with a family whose reference is 819/5/9
