I think you might have solved this !!

On the probate and Wills list there is death of a Henry Joseph COULSTON of Hawksheads Bolton-le-Sands on 21 July 1924.

Mentioned on that record there are John Hubert Courteney COULSTON and Henry Charles COULSTON retired captains H.M.Army

I couldn't see the birth of a John Hubert COULSTON
BUT
There is this

Births Jun 1887
Knowles John Hubert C Lancaster 8e 775

and
Births Jun 1891
Knowles Henry Charles Lancaster 8e 832

which matches these names with 1901 information ????

I wonder if uncle's Will had something to do with the name change...?

Found on a Google search

Henry Coulston (1862-1924)“Born in 1862, Henry Joseph Coulston succeeded estates under his great uncle’s will in 1901 and took up residenceat Hawkshead in Bolton-le-Sands. He was admitted to the Bar in 1884, and two years later married Mary Hodgson of Grange-over-Sands. Coulston was an extensive landowner… He became a county magistrate in1896, and was elected onto Lancaster Rural District Council in 1892, becoming the oldest member and serving as chairman of the highways committee from 1901. He was elected to the county council in 1903 and became alderman of the county in 1916… He died in 1924 at the age of 62.”

Well found rootgatherer

Well done all you guys - what terrific work here! You have all earned a pat on the back, cream cake or wee hauf whichever you prefer.

Some of our ancestors don't half go out of their way to hide from us.

Yes a brilliant job

Hopefully the poster will agree

Off for a cup of coffee and a custard tart

I hope Alan Nicholas has a look on Google for some of these names.
There's loads of information out there.......
It's great to have a good result.
Well done all.
Now if only I could find my Henry's parents...... *sigh*

Nudge to keep near the top of my threads

I have sent a pm to the poster to inform him of replies here.
