CHARLES GEORGE BENTLEY LONDON 1886

Desperately seeking Bentleys. They're tricky little suckers that I'm searching for because most of our line are Charles Georges barring one who was a Charles James. Here's how it goes:

1. Charles George b1886 London m1912 Brisbane to Rosina May Loosley. Supposedly in Merchant Navy.
2. His father: Charles George bc1865 possibly married to an Alice. Children included Charles, Henry & I think a Frederick.
3. His father: Charles James who was a watch or clockmaker in London.
4. His father: Yet again another Charles George.
Apparently the Eldest son of the eldest son was always known as Charles but I'm unsure when this particular tradition started. It continued in Australia but is about to come to an end as the latest Charles George had only female issue.
I'd am desperate to hear from anyone who thinks they may have some clues.
Cheers, Louise
