Pork Butcher in Hull East Yorkshire called CF Uebel

[Nickuebel]

Hello,
I'm new to this so please be patient. I am trying to find any reference to my grandfather, C.F.Uebel a Pork Butcher in Hull, East Yorkshire. Family stories say he came from a place/ region of Germany called Halle. He first travelled via Hull to the United States were he worked for a time in Chicago. For reasons unknown he returned to England and Hull and eventually opened his shop in Porter Street, Hull. Census records tell me he was established there by 1896. Whether he was married first or after he established the shop I don't know but my grandmother's name was Sofia( don't know her maiden name). Their children, my father, Charles Henry Uebel, three sisters, Elsie, Anne and Laura. My fathers two brothers, Ludwig and (unknown) died in infancy. I believe that possibly relatives worked in the shop or residence as servants (names unreadable on census).
What bit of research I have managed unearthed a Louise Uebel baptised in Holy Trinity Church in Hull in the seventeenth century so maybe the family name was already here?

There is also a marriage between Christian F Uebel and Sophie Koehnlein at Hull Register Offices in 1896. The reference is HRO/40/20.
