Going back to George:

The 1901 census posted above shows that he had a brother Thomas.
He also had other siblings.

George's birth:

This might be Thomas's birth, though there's no mmn given, so maybe not:

George, William and Bessie with an aunt and uncle in 1881:

I don't see Lydia's marriage to a Dipper.

I don't see any later mention of George's sister Bessie, unless this is her in 1928:

MS [ MISS on image ] Bessie Dipper
in the London, England, Electoral Registers, 1832-1965
Name: MS Bessie Dipper
Electoral Date: 1928
Street Address: 17 Danehurst Street
Ward or Division/Constituency: Fulham East and West
County or Borough: Hammersmith and Fulham, England

She's at the same address in 1929, with a Miss Florence Bessie Dipper, who could be George's daughter Bessie Florence, and who married in Middlesex, as already posted.

This looks like George's sister Bessie emigrating (though she must have come back again, if she was in London in1928) :

Bessy Dipper

They're heading for Cincinnati.

Back to George's brothers.

Possibly John Thomas 1885 (known as Thomas in 1891 and 1901) - age a few years out??
Even though the records below give a variety of DOBs, I don't see any other feasible matching birth.


Thomas John Dipper

The father's name of William Henry Dipper is interesting - that's the same as his brother's name.

The step-daughter Florence's birth:

COOK, FLORENCE MAY mmn COOPER
GRO Reference: 1896 S Quarter in HORSHAM Volume 02B Page 309

However, I don't see any Dipper/Cooper births, so it looks as if Thomas didn't have any children.
Another dead end as far as potential living relatives go.

Raymond Albert Dipper 18 [ Albert Raymond at birth ]


Albert and Eleanor had two other children -
John H in 1935, and Reginald William Thomas in 1930.


Reginald married in in Winchester 1957, and died in 2009:

Mr Reginald William Thomas Dipper
in the England and Wales, Death Index, 1989-2019
Name: Mr Reginald William Thomas Dipper
Gender: Male
Age: 79
Birth Date: 1930
Last Residence: Winchester, Hampshire, England
Postal Code District: So23
Death Date: 11 Feb 2009

His wife may still be living, but I don't see her on Electoral Rolls.
They had three sons, born in Winchester.


I've PM'd you the names of Reginald's sons, and the address of one of them.

To remind you -
Reginald Dipper was a son of Albert Dipper, who was a son of William Henry Dipper, who was a brother of George Dipper, who was Elsie's father.

However, unless they are into family tree research, it seem unlikely that Reginald's sons will know anything about their great-grandfather's niece Elsie.

I haven't investigated Albert's siblings, nor Reginald's siblings , to see if they had children or not.

I haven't investigated the Manns side of your family for living relatives.

You don't seem to have any direct living relatives descended from George Dipper (Elsie's father) .
George's brother William Henry seems to be the only one of George's siblings to have had children.
