I have recently been told Charles may have changed his name to Charles Harrison, more confusion! I've found a picture of him with his mother, on the back it's dated aug 1915. I'm not sure where it was taken but know his mother lived in Devon, maybe he came home to visit. I need help with his uniform he's wearing, maybe he served in the army then?

It looks like you were wrong about being unable to upload the picture.  ;)

I would suggest posting the picture in the military section of RootsChat. Someone there may be able to help with identifying the uniform.

You'll have to give it a new name................then you can post it.

Even changing one small thing will work

Hi

Did anyone find any marriages in Canada for a Charles Boniface? I've just come across a picture of a Charles boniface on a canadian archive site, it mentions his wife Nina.

Yes, I told you about him earlier, he is thought to be a home child and died in WW1...as I had found the ww1 signup and subsequent death...so then found his wife and the photos and his death in ww1, then death & burial of Nina...It mentioned somewhere he was thought to be a homechild, so found more...
Born 1892 mother Alice..You said Charle's mother was Maria?

There have now basically found the information on him once again...to prove he's not yours, I didn't bother posting more back then as I thought saying don't chase the other I already did would be enough...
