Charles Beaumont or Charles Beaumont Jones ??

[johnbarr]

Charles Beaumont appears in the UK Census.
1881 as 1yr old with parents William and Mary (possibly Carter) at 133 Henshaw St, Oldham.
1891 as 11yr old with parents William and Mary, at 12 Belmont St, Oldham.
1901 as 21yr old with parents William and Mary, at 12 Belmont St, Oldham.
1911 as 32yr old with wife Lily (Newboult) and 3 children.

However, it seems that the only matching records elsewhere report him as Charles Beaumont JONES.
e.g.
Births Sep 1879, Jones    Charles Beaumont        Oldham    8d   668
Marriages Dec 1901 Jones    Charles Beaumont        Oldham    8d   1101
Marriages Dec 1901 NEWBOULT    Lily         Oldham    8d   1101

There are several other records of his service and death in WW1, all using the surname Jones.
Is it possible to view his service record to confirm his parents 

Can anyone explain this apparent use of two surnames, or were there in fact two different persons that I'm getting mixed.
I cannot find any further record of William Beamont either, so perhaps elsewhere he is recorded as Jones too

There is a certificate on the www.cwgc.org website but unfortunately, it doesn't give the name of his wife or his address.

You should be able to get a copy of his service records and his next of kin should be recorded.
I am sure that someone on this site will point you in the right direction.

His marriage cert might help, giving his father's name and occupation.

Thanks for your replies, Radcliff

I believe the daughter Florence Martha lived only one year, and does not help solve the riddle of Charles two surnames.

It is interesting to see the name Jones as mother of Charles.
Does this confirm that the parents of Charles Beaumont Jones were not William Beaumont and Mary Carter?

Hi Heatherjulie,

Yes, that's one of the mentions of military service I had seen.
How could I get a copy of his service record which would show NOK?
