This could be the Charley on the 1901 and 1911 census above, baptised 1887- so if the 1891 birth date is correct I'm not sure it's the right one:

Charles Webb
Baptism 31 Jul 1887
Father:Henry Thomas Webb,
Mother:Lucy Webb
St John the Evangelist Lambeth

And same family in 1911:
WEBB, Hemey Thomas Head Married M 47 1864 Engineer Christ Church County of London

Does Charley, machine operator, become an engineer, or is that a little far-fetched?

Father Henry Thomas (not Thomas Henry) but a mechanical engineer, and a son, Charles, born 1887/1888

..Hi to all those helping me, this is fantastic!! Right let me start with as much as i possibly know, my Nan and Victor Charles Webb married on 10th April 1937, he was 46yrs old she was 32. He was a widower, a Consulting Engineer and his father, an Engineer was deceased at this time and his name was Thomas Henry Webb. Their residence at the time of marriage was 17 Gordon Cresent Hayes. Now, my mum was not born till 1940 by which time they were living in Lancashire. She was the second youngest of four children, only three were by Victor the eldest, a boy,was born in 1934.
My Mums initials are the same as her dads,Valerie Cynthia,and his birthday was May 8th,the same as my brothers.
My Mum always thought he was, in her words, senile as he used to be gone for days but when he was home sit and talk to his self (i thought he sounded more like an alcoholic).
One day when she was around 6yrs old she remembers her mum taking him a cup of tea in bed then coming down stairs and taking her, her 2 sisters and brother and moving to London.They lived for some time in a rest centre in Eaton place, Sloan square,before finding somewhere more permenant. Apparently her Dad tracked them down and they used to have to go and visit him but these visits didn't last too long and they were told they were not allowed to see him.
As the years went by and my mum was courting she would often see him if she was on a bus or from a distance but she would never talk to him because she thought she would get in trouble for doing so.
I have looked at all the censors looking for a birth place etc and no luck and i also would like to know who his 1st wife was and did they have any children.
Sorry to have waffled on abit but i hope some of this may help or know where to go from here. Ali xx

Hello Alison-

To help further we really need a bit of feed back and some answers to Patricia's questions

Father's occupation
Victor's occupation
Do you know of any children from his first marriage?
Where has the date of birth come from?

Just to say, for Alison's benefit, I've also looked, as I am sure others have, and found nothing more than Helen and Patricia have.
