Paternal grandfather: Charles Humphreys (born 1795 ) View NotesHide notes

Was a solicitor, according to Charles and Sophia’s marriage certificate.

Marriage to Esther on Ancestry - she from Leyton, Essex, also christening of his children. Not sure if marriage to Eliza is there.

Mother: Marion Morton (born 1844 Uxbridge, Middlesex died 1879 Islington, London) View NotesHide notes

Marion was born in Uxbridge, according to the 1871 census return. However, the only Marion Morton I could find in earlier censuses was born in Wapping - so there is some disparity here.

married 1866 Islington, London

Father Charles Humphreys (born 1839 Hackney, Middlesex)

Sister: Fanny Humphreys (born 1879 Hackney, Middlesex ) View NotesHide notes

In the 1891 census Fanny appears as Fanny Humphreys with presumably step-mother Fanny. Marion Humphreys, I believe her real mother, died towards the end of 1879 perhaps in child birth. I suspect she was not originally given the name Fanny.

Wife: Gertrude Mary Hawkins (born 1871 Primrose Hill, Hampstead, London ) married 1900 Newbury, Hampshire

Son: Charles Wilfred Compton Humphreys (born 4.9.1903 Enfield, Middlesex died 1977 Lancaster, Lancashire) 3 children

Wife: Gweneth Whitfield (born 15.11.1915 died 1977 Manchester, Lancashire)

Son: John Humphreys (born 1940 Manchester, Lancashire )

Daughter: Wendy M Humphreys (born 1942 Manchester, Lancashire )

Son: Paul Humphreys (born 1944 Manchester, Lancashire )

Charles Morton Humphreys Notes:

I believe Charles was at Middle Class School, Beaconsfield at the time of the 1881 census - but insufficient evidence to be sure
