Hi Sally,

Sorry for the delay in replying, but I'm having trouble tracing him. Is the name correct - Charles Argyle? When did he and Annie get married? I've looked for the marriage on BMD and genes, but not found them yet. I've also looked at other census records and not found him there in the London area either.
