I have hit a brick wall and I am hoping someone will be able to help me out
I am looking for my Great Uncle Lionel Percy Sayer born in Wales 1893 to emmanuel Sayer and Sarah Ann Robson
This is what i know
1. Lionel lived in Aysgarth Yorkshire as a child
2. Moved to Doncaster where his faher died in 1908
3. Mother remarried to a Harry Carr in 1909 and moved to Ulceby Lincolnshire not sure if he went with the family or not
3. Sister Florence Annie , Alexander and Wilfred
4. Mother died in 1918 and his sister Florence married his stepfather three months later!
5. Alexander was killed in WWI
6. Wilfred is my grandfather he left home at 16 Did not like his stepfather and apparently disowned his sister when she married her step father ( just found out about that in the past year!)
7. my mother has a vague recolection of Lionel coming to visit his brother Wilfred In Cleethorpes around late 1930's
8. Lionel was in the Army

I was given some informaiton re a Leonard Percy Sayer born Wales about the same time was a sailor on ships going back and forth to America but I cannot confirm this is him with a slight change in his name
Cannot find if he married

Any help would be appreicated he is the last one to be found Would thrill my mother as she know very little about her fathers family

Thanks
