Crumbs this case just gets more and more of a puzzle doesn’t it. 

I couldn’t find Lilian Nesbit Charles Clark either, who were these people and a gold mining company?
Perhaps this man travelled abroad. 
Kind of fearing this wasn’t the right birth either and yet there is the link with Kings Road address.
However that would make him only about 19 when he married not 27.

Re the sister info it was crossed out wasn’t it so I wondered if it was just written on the wrong record?
Otherwise yes it could conceivably be the woman he was having an entanglement with, anything is possible with this case!

I think the fact Lilian Nesbit /Charles Clark are not easily found lends credence to the idea it is still worth considering this person.
Especially in view of the Kings Road address

I too tried searching for gold mining occupations last night and there was a CC from the US mining gold silver copper born 1871 who is in the UK in 1921.  Unlikely but will double check.

Lilian Elizabeth Nesbitt birth in 1897 and probable death in 1898 Islington just in case she is a link.

I saw him and thought not - he and his wife and children are American, which suggests he's a recent arrival

This has been really intriguing,  I had 2 females in my family who changed their names when it  suited them, one was possibly  bigamous.

November 2nd 1889
87 St John’s Road. Charles Nesbit/ Boy/Father Charles Clark/ Mother Lilian Clark/
Formally Nesbit / Fathers Occupation Amalgamated Gold Mining Company /Registered by mother / 20th November 1889.

The occupation is a little strange - it should state what he actually does, not just the name of a company.

Are you sure of the first word? Might it say amalgamator rather than amalgamated? This occupation caught my eye in relation to gold mining while looking through newspaper reports. See snip below.

Just a thought......clutching at straws.

I've been thinking along that Amalgamator Line as well JenB.
Hasn't got me anywhere though!

Perhaps Bellas girl could post a clip of the occupation part so we could have a look.

Certainly an unusual occupation to come across.
