Notes for Percy Robertson Powys Lane
His marriage is:

Howe Alice Emma Norwich 4b 177
Lane Percy Robertson P    Norwich 4b 177

A Percy R P Lane died in Q2 of 1927 aged 54 in Norwich (FreeBMD).  I think this has to be him (and his grandfather came from Norfolk, he had been living in Norwich in 1901 and 1911 and his wife came from Norwich).

There are no Lane-Howe births in Norwich after 1911, though there are a few in Tiverton, Totnes and Bristol.  So I think we can firmly conclude that they had no children.
