it is quite important to post middle names if you know them
these are possible birth regs for lawrence Victors siblings -if you know them to be different please correct

you can look up the ref on FreeBMD
all reg W Derby district
John Joseph Sept qtr 1885
Lillian Beatrice Dec qtr 1889
Edith Margaret Jun qtr 1891
Leonard Stanley Sept qtr 1896
Albert Edward Jun qtr 1901

was the brother Robert you mentioned Robert grimshaw Scarth

If so his birth was reg Dec qtr 1887 W Derby
and death Jun qtr 1889 W Derby

using their middle names as well - there are marriage reg for most of them on FreeBMD

Hope this helps
