In 1901, Charles was still living at home with his mother Maria and two of his three brothers, age 29.
By 1911 he was married with two young children.
On 24 July 1916 he is recorded on the passenger list of the ship "St Paul" arriving in New York with next of kin given as Mrs. A.M. Hancox (S9). On 15 March 1937 he is listed on the passenger list arriving in Southampton from Madeira, Portugal on the Vandyck (Lamport and Holt Line), and is still a cotton merchant.
From the following it is evident that he had business interests in the USA:

And then, in 1939, he and Alice plus daughter Barbara are listed on the Mauretania, sailing from Liverpool to New York and arriving 24 June 1939. He was retired by then, as he gives no 'occupation' on the passenger list.
