The last known address for Charles is in Norwich in 1911 with his parents and sister Jessie.
Doing a basic search he appears to be single.

On FreeBMD there are quite a few marriages for a Charles Hunt in Norwich but most have middle initials so I have ignored those which leaves this one.

Marriages March 1/4 1915  Charles Hunt to Blanche Wicks. registration district  Norwich vol 4b page 193 

There appear to be 5 children to this couple between 1915 and 1924. I can't name them as they may still be alive. You can use FreeBMD to find their names and years/quarters of birth.
The first child born in 1915 married in 1936 - again on FreeBMD

There is a service record for a Charles Hunt, born Norwich, who served in the Training Reserve 10th Battalion and a Yorkshire regiment WW1.

You will need to access ancestry or Findmypast to read the records.

He and Blanche are also on the 1939 register in the Norwich C.B with three others who's names are blocked (probably their children).

This may be his death
