how have you arrived at his name?
Did he marry and have you got the cert ?

What does the "E" stand for ?

If that is the correct family in 1851 then the father Charles E Norris was a plumber & painter.

Ancestry is playing up at the moment so can't view the image to see father's occupation on this:

London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906
Name: Charles Norris
Record Type: Baptism
Baptism Date: 14 Jan 1844 - born 20 Dec 1843
Father's Name: Edward Charles Norris
Mother's Name: Eliza Catherine Norris
Parish or Poor Law Union: Southwark St Saviour
Borough: Southwark
Register Type: Parish Registers

EDIT
Image now available - the father is a plumber and the address is 30 Great Guildford Street.

Although there's no middle name on the baptism it's not uncommon for a name to be added later.

Hi Glitterbaby the E was for Edward,

Ann - see baptism posted above, looks like they reversed his father's names.
