Find Living Relatives

I am trying to find living relations of Frank Rainer born 1876 died August 1953 in Torquay Devon, his daughter Ms E.M.Pearce living at Harvey Road, London registered his death. Frank was the eldest son of Benjimin and Marianne Rainer and was born in Great Yarmouth. Frank workied in banking and was made a bank manager in due course. He had three brothers,Welton (1880) Sidney (1885) and Gevy (1889) and a sister Gertrude (1877). At the age of 20 he and the family were living in London. I know that in 1936 he was living in Hove,Sussex then on to Torquay Devon.
I would be glad of any help.
Virginia.

If Muriel was Frank's only child - have you checked? - it seems there are no descendants, as his daughter appears not to have had any children (at least, not legitimate ones)

Have you looked in search trees to find out if anyone else on GR is researching this family?

He made a trip to Australia with his wife in 1934:

I have not got a sub to FMP but it appears as if they left Southampton bound for Genoa, Italy that same year:

Based upon what Lynski has found details of it would appear that the Rainers did not travel to Australia. Somehow it appears as if they managed to return from their trip to Italy on a ship that had left Brisbane and probably had called into Genoa on its way back to England.

Thank you Jonesey and Lynski you have both been a great help to our family
