Colin family in Oldcroft 1901+ (General)

I am looking for information on the Colin family in Oldcroft after about 1901. James and Adaline (known as Annie) Colin were married in St Peters Church, Cheltenham in October 1901 and were known to be in Crickhowel in 1904 when their daughter Gladys was born. They were in Oldcroft in 1907 when their son Victor was born and James is on the Electoral Role there for two years. Victor was baptised in Viney Hill Church in November 1907. They are known to live in Cheltenham in 1912. James in known to originate in the Forest and relatives lived in Cinderford, Coleford and Coalway. Of particular interest is where they lived in Oldcroft and what James did for a living.

Any information or research pointers would be much appreciated please.
