JAMES / MILLS family - originally from Parkend (General)

Does anyone have any information on the following people please:

John James born 1873, with one of his sons went to America in 1921. His wife Eliza would appear to have followed in 1922 with 2 of the younger children.
They had the following children:

Ernest born 1896 approximately
Redvers b. 1902 Do.
Ivor b. 1904 Do.
John (Jack) b. 1907 Do.
Cyril b. 1910 Do.
Ruby b. 1912 Do. was she known as Doris also?

Ernest did not appear to have gone to America with the family
but in 1929 an Ernest James ( Ruardean) went to America with his wife Muriel ( b. Coleford.) Maybe he is the Ernest of the family.
The family, apart from Ernest appear on the 1930 American census at Franklin Illinois USA but I have no further information.
If anyone has any information of this family I would be very grateful as John James snr. was a brother to one of my grandmothers.
Thank you
