Have you tried looking for info anywhere?
Freebmd is the best place to start looking for marriages and subsequent births

Did both of them survive WW1?

In which years were they born?

Look for their names in ‘search all member trees’. If they appear, send contact message to the tree owner(s)

EDIT. I just looked for Austin - he’s in two trees, so that’s a start for you

As you are posting on the Find Living Relatives board one assumes they survived the war.

Use the free site www.freebmd.org.uk to find their births, then their marriages and then look for births of any children and so on.
