Charles Beaumont or Charles Beaumont Jones ??

[johnbarr]

Hi silvery,

It is really Charles Beaumont and his father William that I am trying to trace, and an explanation as to why so many of the references to Charles Beamont Jones seem to conflict with his - except perhaps the mention of mother as Jones as pointed out by heatherjulie.

I am very confused by this situation but feel there must be an explanation somewhere.

Hi
I have just looked at the King's Own (Royal Lancaster Regiment) website and it says that only about 30% of the records exist.

On the censuses, both Charles and his father William were screw and bolt makers.
Have you managed to find William in 1911? When did he die?

Your man seems to appear in 4 trees on A*******
There is a photo of him.
On one of the trees his marriage is given as 4th October 1901.
Do you know if the family were members of a particular church?

The only way to solve your mystery is to buy the birth certificate of Charles Beaumont Jones


Charles Beaumont mother Jones,1879

William  married to Mary Carter 1873,was she Mary Jones and married a Carter ,Oldham

or was Charles a relatives child

Heather states he is a bolt maker in the census returns,
Marthas baptism states her father is an iron works manager

Parents married in the registry office or registrar attended ceremony
so not in the Church of England

yes lots of conflicting information,

[heatherjulie]

I agree Radcliff, the birth and marriage certificates are needed.
I was just wondering if they were methodists as there are some records at the Oldham Archives centre.

I have just read this message on another site

I am tracing my father's family. His father, Charles, was illegitimate born 30.6.1879 to Betty Jones. Brought up by his uncle William Beaumont and wife Mary as their son. Any information very much appreciated.

Is this your message? Or has it helped to solve the problem?

Spot on,
as I thought ,now to prove it,

[Radcliff]

So Charles is with them in 1881 as a 1 year old born Oldham
so if his mother had died that narrows the date range down
