    Separated Bef 1901 
    • Charles and Alice had separated by the time of the 1901 census, and both subsequently appear to have lived with other partners.
      In Charles' will he said:
      "8, THE reason why my wife is not benefitting by this my Will is that she left me without just cause over Fifty years ago and since then we have not lived and cohabited together neither have I contributed towards her maintenance"

    Other Partners: Sarah Jane TANSWELL  m. 25 Aug 1887 
    Married Bef 1939 
    • It seems that Alice and her husband had parted by 1898, and Charles was living with Alice by the time of the 1939 register. He was listed after her, as though boarder or lodger, but it seems probable she was more than that to him. From his will it is clear her family had become his family: he left everything to Alice, but should she have pre-deceased him then to her granddaughters. (Alice's husband left nothing to the son they appear to have had together, nor to his daughters, so there was a place free to effectively be their grandfather).
    Married? Not married or evidence to suggest they didn't marry
