	I'd say that is the correct Charles Edward Maddie. John appears to be registered twice in both his father's name and also his mother's maiden name, so it looks like the parents were not married at the time. They appear to have married very soon afterwards though:- England & Wales marriages 1837-2005 Transcription First name(s) CHARLES E Last name PRINCE Marriage quarter 1 Marriage year 1942 Registration month - MarriageFinder™ CHARLES E PRINCE married Joan H Liversidge Spouse's last name Liversidge District Don Valley District number - County Yorkshire Country England Volume 9C Volume as transcribed 9C Page number 1948 Record set England & Wales Marriages 1837-2005 Kath. x

	Do you have any idea of when he was born? For instance, when was your mother born? That would give us a starting point. Can your mother give you any additional information, such as about his nationality or names of his family members?
