The three records on FMP are most likely his triplets Prince, Paul and Pauline born 1927. On another thread I started it looks like his wife left him for somebody called South. His first child a daughter born in 1914 was registered as Burr-Waller though I never been able to work out why as it’s not his mother or his wife’s maiden name.

I was wondering if anyone could find Charles Burr who was born in 1883 on the 1911 census. Charles was born in 1883 in Wolverton, Bucks and married Mabel Higgins in 1913 in Hitchin, Herts. Charles parents Charles and Eliza are living with Charles’ sister Elizabeth Banks and her husband. Charles is a house decorator also known as Joe and Charles’ father also Charles is a house painter at 70.

Can anyone find Charles junior in 1911?
