The GCM notes for Trim Trial gives him as Charles Ernest Davies. I do not think he could have been born Charles Ernest Davies. His dob seems correct in that it is in 1939 Register and his death. Sadler (b 21 May) and Woodley are the two Charles Ernests who were born in Berks at that time. Spreading the net to other counties does not help
