    • Charles and his younger brother Edward, both died as civilians in WWII. I am not sure if it was fact or fiction but one of the brothers took shelter during a bombing raid underneath the stair case in his house. When found he had no wounds but had died from gas leaking from the ruptured gas pipe located under the stairs. The other brother was killed by a device hanging from a small parachute caught on a lamp post. I don't know what happened but the device exploded and allegedly took his head off. Possibly true or a good tale.
