Hello Dorothy, his birth certificate would be useful to get his exact date of birth - very useful for tracing death records.

Do you know whether Charles Robert stayed with the family or was he adopted?

I dont think he was adopted. My parents lived together in the 1930s. I remember
my father talking about his children Charles, Alfred, Florence..I would love to find
out about him.
Thank you Dorothy
