Trying to find ancestor

I am trying to find descendants of my Grandmother, Mary Elizabeth Auth born 1886 in London. She was one of the children of Edward Auth who emigrated from Hessen Capel in Germany. They were tailors in the now West End of London. I have his father's name but then the trail goes cold. It was a large family but I cannot find any Auths so wonder if they changed their surname after WW1. Site is brilliant idea but cannot add grandparents or siblings. I do have the 1881 census on cd roms and would be happy to make searches.
