Thank you both very much for your help! It has really helped me! 
I am on annual leave next week so I think I may station myself in the library one afternoon and see what I can find! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Although strictly speaking I’m not a beginner, I haven’t done any research for a few years now so I need to get back into it!
I have three photos of men from WW1 and I’m not sure if they are all of Charles or one is Joseph! It’s a shame as I don’t think I’ll ever find out (at least Albert wrote on the back on his!)

I wonder if someone could find, Charles, Ada and Dorothy on the 1939 register? It may assist with selecting the correct death for Ada.
