My thanks again for the data. Is there any data on the death of Gwendoline or her son?
I suspect this line has living relatives in Australia.

ROY NICHOLAS COURLANDER
There is no current data to confirm who the father of Roy Nicholas Courlander was.On the marriage of his mother Edith to Leonard Courlander he took his step father's surname.
Roy Cater was born March qtr 1915 -mother's maiden name CATER Kensington 1a 149
He appears in the UK Outward Passenger List-Southampton 1929 for Australia His address 179 Portnall Road SW9 age 14 scholar. He sailed alone.
Interestingly, the address of 179 Portnall Road is that of his mother Edith on her 1920 Marriage cerificate to Leonard Courlander.
Edith Cater maybe the daughter of the George Cater who appears in the 1901 and 1911 Census:
1901 Census (Copyright TNA) I will supply full GRO References in a later post.

There are several newspaper accounts of the burglary at Leonard Henry Courlander's jeweller' shop at 2 Ludgate Hill City of London (trading as Aitchson Brothers)in 1910. The robbery led to his bankruptcy- see The London Gazette Archives 1910-1914.
In the London Electoral Registers Leonard is at 61 Theobald Road Camden in 1924.
He is recorded as being in partnership with Raey Albert Goodyear soap manufacturers when the partnership was dissolved in 1940. They were trading at 135 George St North Sydney -see Government Gazette NSW Friday 25, Oct 1940.Phillip-Jewish,British Ancestry

I hold a copy of the full will of Louis Courlander died 10 February 1931 Newham Steyning Sussex.
In his will he makes bequests to his daughter Annie who had married Levy Jacobson in 1902; his daughter Ethel Frederica who had married Leo Semjen Hirschberg aka LIONEL HILL in 1915;grandchild Rosemary. He does not name his other children but refers to arrangements regarding bequests. His son Herbert and daughter Annie plus son in-law Lionel Hill are named as his executors.
His son Alphonse Courlander had committed suicide some years prior ( there is significant online data on Alphonse and I have posted an earlier thread about him).
I also hold a copy of the will for Maud Eva Courlander-VINCENT nee Phillips the first wife of Leonard Henry Courlander. She died 13 July 1941 28 Northgate Prince Albert Road,NW8 London a single woman.
Her executor was her solicitor. In her will she asked to be cremated and her ashes scattered. Her bequests included: Her daughter Nancy Hermione Bodington;Her daughter Barbara Frances Rubien; her servant Hazel Wills; Miss Maureen Caroll 49 Belsize Avenue Hampstead NW3; In trust for her son John Thomas Courlander.
The UK Shipping records show that Leonard Henry Courlander and Edith had visited Louis prior to his death.Phillip-Jewish,British Ancestry

ROY NICHOLAS COURLANDER
There are a wide range of online references to Roy Nicholas Courlander the step son of Leonard Henry Courlander including Wikipedia and newspaper articles in Britain, Australia and New Zealand.It is not my intention to repeat data on Roy Nicholas Courlander other than to refer to his two marriages- the first to Joan Beryl Marchand and the second to Margaret Spence.
There is a newsaper article -The Daily Telegraph Sydney Tues 16 April 1929 which refers to the arrival of passengers on the Maunganui due Sydney from Wellington which includes.." Roy Courlander born in New Hebrides back from England where he was educated. Although in his teens he has been twice around the world."
The newspaper reference to Roy Courlander being born in the New Hebrides is incorrect as a previopus posting regarding his illegitimate birth in England has shown.
Roy Courlander died in Australia 1979- there is no reference to any children being born from his marriage in current records.Phillip-Jewish,British Ancestry
