For several years during the reign of King Edward VII (1901-1910), and for some time after, Charles drove the horse-drawn Royal Mail van between Cross-in-Hand and Uckfield, while living at Lankhurst Oak Cottage.

When he was 34 years old Charles married 29-year-old Minnie Hemsley at Holy Trinity Church in High Hurstwood on 19 December 1914.

He was stationed with the 6th Battalion at Chatham when he overstayed his leave by one day on 19 September 1916. His wife in a statement to the police about this said that it was on account of two brothers coming home, who were in the New Zealand Contingent, that he wanted to have a day with. These couldn't have been his brothers, but presumably two of his friends who were brothers.

Then on 6 October 1916 Charles was posted to the 11th Battalion of the Middlesex Regiment and embarked for France the same day. In France he was appointed an unpaid Lance Corporal on 10 July 1917.
