As you have to contact a family in England, perhaps they will be able to give you some information about the missing boys.  You don't say how old your grandmother was in 1940, but as she is presumably child number 2 or 3 as they are the only girls, she would be old enough to know what happened to the child.  Can she remember him as a child at all?  He could have been adopted if he was a war baby, or died as a child.

Are you in touch with the families of the ones you have death certificates for?  They may have more information that your grandmother has forgotten.
