- Hi Di
have you tried to see if there is a FHS in the frome area, maybe they could help.
Even the local library might have the newspaper articles you are after.
You should find them very helpful.

- Hi Dianne
I have not managed to find anything on your Charles sorry about that, seems to be very elusive.
Found that none of the passenger lists were kept from that time on depatures from London, not sure if you know that is where the resource left from that he left on.
Colin.
