Yes Gins, that is my thread you posted earlier. Sorry I forgot to add that.
I have also made a note of Charles J Howlett & Evelyn Howlett and the one of Mary A Howlett too on the London Electoral Registers..
Of course there is always a chance that when Charles James Howlette remarried illegally... he could have used a false name too. The scoundrel!

Yes that the one on the 1911 Census with his parents and siblings. I know all about him through census records, London Electoral Regs and his father's army records.
Yes that's his first marriage to Catherine Emma Alexandra McCubbin.
They had 4 children:
Jessie Catherine Elizabeth Howlette 1921 Robert Charles James Howlette 1923 (my uncle by marriage) Charles James R Howlette 1925 Betty Maureen Howlette 1927 On the 1950-4 electoral rolls at 98 Priory Park Road, Willesden - that is his son Charles James R Howlette born 1925 Paddington, who married Sheila V Casey in 1955.
I'm in contact with grandchildren of Jessie, Maureen and of course my cousins. Not yet found a living relative of the brother Charlie, though.
Whenever Charles James Howlette (Senior) died, his wife was in receipt of a Widows pension...
One of my cousins tells me that his wife was in court when he was charged with bigamy and sent to prison, but that's all she knows. Needless to say it was not spoken about that much due to all the upset it caused family back then.
On Jessie's (aka 'Joan') birth certificate1921, he's down as a Barman.
Last known Address: 1927 London Electoral Registers
64 Beethoven Street. Charles Howlett Plus: James William & Jessie Blackwell and Alfred Charles Somerfield. NO Catherine Howlette
So if anyone knows about the other 2 Charles James Howlett in the newspaper reports please contact me even if it's just to eliminate him from my cousin's grandfather.
I'm also waiting for one of my contacts to locate a photo of him that her brother or sister has, but it might take a while.

If that is his correct info and first marriage - his wife must have been very understanding! They appear together on the 1950-4 electoral rolls at 98 Priory Park Road, Willesden - along with Jessie Blackwell (who was her mother on 1911 census)
Edit: VERY understanding, by the look of it - surely it can't be the same guy - I mean would you fall for it twice ;-)
The Howlette/McCubbin marriage produced a child in 1923 - they Charles gets picked up for desertion. Then they produce another child in 1927. And he gets picked up and jailed for a 3rd bigamy in 1943. Would they be back together? I know what I'd have done to him :-D

Anyone know anything abouth this Charles James Howlett?
Reported in the Gloucester Citizen, Jan 1923,
Charles James Howlett was arrested in Stroud, and remanded in custody to be handed over to the Metropolitan Police who wanted him for alleged wife desertion.
Reported in the Gloucestershire Echo 1943.
At Worcester Assizes, Charles James Howlett aged 44 a clerk of Diglislan Cherry Orchard Worcester, pleaded guilty to bigamy at Evesham and was sentenced to three years.. It was stated that this was his 3rd bigamy.
I'm trying to find out if this is the same Charles James Howlett/e who lived in London and also committed bigamy and left his wife to bring up 4 children on her own back in 1933/34. He was born Oct 1898, and according to living relatives he did spend some some in prison for bigamy.
