Edit:
I've just done another check and my mum's mother was also called Honora and she was born in 1891! Perhaps I have my birthdates wrong for Robert and Margaret; if so then I believe you may have found my family!!

Thanks

Mike
Sorry to be off thread.

Mike, I didn't find your Mother Honora....it was her mother I found....born 1891.
I found Margaret, born 1914....and Robert born 1917.
I really would need to find out if the birthdate you have for your Mum is correct before I assumed they were twins.
This has piqued my interest.
I will be in touch.
