Friedrich Robert Donat, born on 18 March 1905 in Withington, Manchester, was the youngest child of Ernst Emil and Rose Alice Donat. Polish-born Ernst (1863-1939) originally trained as a civil engineer at Leipzig University, and subsequently moved to Manchester as the representative of a German cotton-spindle firm; he later worked as a translator in a shipping office. He married Rose (née Green, 1864-1964) who came from Whitby in Yorkshire, and they had four sons, Philip, William, John and Friedrich (known as 'Fritz' when he was very young, later choosing to be known by his middle name, Robert). At the time of Robert Donat's birth, the family lived in Albert Road (now Everett Road) in Withington, and in about 1910 they moved to a larger house on St Paul's Road in the same suburb. Donat attended Ducie Avenue School, later moving to the Central High School for Boys. His memories of school were mixed: he was not an outstanding scholar and as a schoolboy he also suffered from a serious stammer.
