Thanks for your response to my post.  It wasn’t actually me who made any reference to London.  I have no information on Robert Mallett other than what I have read on this forum.  However, the more I have read and followed links and images of paintings by Robert Mallett, I am convinced that the painting in my mother’s possession is a genuine and original work by Robert Mallett.  I am not sure where to go from here or how to research any more information on relatives, past or present, that I might have a connection to.
I would appreciate any more advise you might have, thank you. 
Regards, Carolyn.
