Charles took retirement and spent many of his later years travelling with his wife Ann. On 19 July 1919, Charles arrived in New York on the ship Aquitania, which sailed from Southampton, England. A few years later on 10 Apr 1926 Charles and his wife Ann arrived in London on the ship Cathay, having boarded the ship in Algiers. On 16 Apr 1928 Charles John Huskinson and his wife Ann arrived in London on the ship Guildford Castle, which originally sailed from Mombassa, Kenya. Then on 18 Apr 1930 he arrived in Southampton, having boarded the ship Johan de Witt with his wife in Algiers, his home address is listed as Sigsworth Wath, Near Pately Bridge, Yorkshire.
He also took keen interest in the Newark Golf Club. The nine hole course at Hawton covered just under 40 acres held under a lease which in 1920 had only seven years to run. However, the landlord offered to sell the land to the club and at a special meeting of the members held at the Town Hall in June 1920 the committee were authorised to buy it for £1800. At the same meeting, a resolution was passed that the committee should set up a limited liability company with an authorised capital not exceeding £3000, divided into ordinary shares of £1 to be taken up by members. The purchase of the course was financed partly by a bank overdraft because although the authorised capital of the company was £3000, the club had only 220 members and most of them took just a £1 share each. The biggest shareholdings were: Enos Smith, The White House, Newark 100 W B B Quibell, The Croft, Balderton 50 Ernest Lees, 15 Lombard Street, Newark 50 H D Cherry Downes, Southfield House, Newark 25 C F Richardson, The Brewery, Newark 25 W A Warwick, Balderton Hall 25 Stuart MacRae, Handley House, Newark 25 .

Arthur Frederick Huskinson 1867 - 1949 (2nd Cousin, 3 x removed)
Includes Millicent Ann Newman, Henry Creft Huskinson and Alice Emily Huskinson
Arthur Frederick Huskinson was born 23rd August 1867 at Epperstone, Notts. At the time of the 1871 Census, aged 4 he was living with his parents at Epperstone.
By 1881 he was a cadet the ship "Worcester", based near Dartford. In the middle of the last century the need for pre-sea training was recognised for potential officers in the Royal and Merchant Navy. This led a group of London shipowners to found the 'Thames Nautical Training College' in 1862. The Admiralty was approached for a ship and allocated the 'two-decker' HMS Worcester. At the time the Royal Navy was starting to replace their fleet of 'wooden walls' with iron clad vessels and they had a surplus of such vessels, including the 1473 ton 50 gun 'Worcester'. She had various berths before finally moving in 1871 to what became a base forever associated with the 'Worcester' - the village of Greenhithe where successive ships remained until the 1970s.
I have not been able to trace Arthur on the 1891 or 1901 census, but in 1902 he marries on the 25th October to Millicent Ann Newman in Adelaide, Australia. She is the daughter of Henry Walter Newman and Joanna, and was born 02 Jun 1867 in London, England.
In 1904 they have a son, Henry Creft Huskinson, and in 1906 a daughter Alice Emily Huskinson.
Henry Creft Huskinson died 02 Apr 1946 in 582 Military Road, Grange, South Australia
Arthur F Huskinson died on 1 November 1949, at Kilkenny, Australia

Harold Huskinson 1870 - (2nd Cousin, 3 x removed)
Including Helen A W Amory-Jones 1870 - 1954
Harold Huskinson was born on 19 MAY 1870 at Epperstone, Nottingham, England . He was the 5th child of William and Emily.
Harold was 10 months old at the time of the 1871 census, and was living with his family at Epperstone Manor, who were supported by 4 servants. He was still listed at the Manor House in the 1881 Census, along with his 6 brothers.
I believe Harold went to study at Oakham School between 1882 and 1887, following in the footsteps of his older brothers.
After his schooling at Oakham, he moved to London and studied medicine at St Barts. At the time of the 1891 Census he is living as a lodger at 58 Dogherty Place, London. St Bartholomew's Hospital Medical College was established in 1848 to train medics although considered to have been started by John Abernethy when the hospital built a theatre for his lectures at the beginning of the century.
In 1899 he had joined the military, and is noted in The Royal Navy Medical Service;
“The following appointments have been made at the Admiralty: February 28th HAROLD HUSKINSON, M.B., Surgeon to the Cambridge”
The Cambridge was laid down at Pembroke Dockyard as HMS Victoria in 1844. On 28 February 1857 she was ordered to be converted from sail to steam propulsion and to be fitted with 120 guns. She was renamed Windsor Castle on 6 January 1855 and launched on 26 August 1858. By 1862 she had been reduced to 97 guns. She was renamed HMS Cambridge in 1869.
His time on the Cambridge was short, and he moved to be the Surgeon, on the Glory, on November 1st 1900. The Ship was built in 1899 and was designed for service in the Far East, where the new rising power Japan was beginning to build a powerful and dangerous navy. HMS Glory commissioned on 1 November 1900 for service on the China Station, departing the United Kingdom for China on 24 November 1900. While there, she was in collision with battleshipHMS Centurion during a storm at Hong Kong on 17 April 1901, when Centurion drifted across her bows, but Glory suffered no damage. Glory refitted at Hong Kong in 1901-1902.
I have no trace of Harold in the 1901 Census, but I suspect he may have been in the Far East, after being on the maiden voyage of HMS Glory.
By 1904, Harold had returned to London, where he married Helen Agnes Wilhelmina Amory-Jones on the 1st of June. Helen was born in 1872 at Hyde Park Mansions, London. At the time of their marriage Harold was resident at Jermyn St, Piccadilly. This is where Fortnum and Mason is situated since 1707.
In 1912 Harold writes an article for the British Medical Journal;
IODINE IN FIRST-AID TREATMENT.
SIR, May I endorse Fleet Surgeon Wildey's experience, detailed in the JOURNAL of August 24th, as to the value of iodine in first-aid treatment of -wounds, as it was seeing his methods at Chatham Hospital which led me to follow his example? In this ship, where I am in charge of 2,000 men in the Third Destroyer Flotilla, every wound or abrasion which comes under my notice, however trivial, is painted immediately with 2 per cent. solution of iodine in rectified spirit. I do not remember any cases of sepsis since this routine was commenced eight months ago, and the time spent on the sick list is very appreciably shortened in consequence. I have also found it. useful in the' numerous cases of boils which seem incident to ship life. The surrounding area of skin is painted every two or three days with the solution, which prevents what frequently becomes a crop of boils by infection of the surrounding skin from the original focus of infection.-I am, etc.,
HAROLD HUSKINSON, Fleet Surgeon, R.N. H.M.S. Blenheim, Home Fleet, Aug. 25th.
Harold is listed in the 1912 to 1916 phone books at 29 Emperor’s Gate, London. This was a development by Matthew Scott's who built twelve houses (Nos. 26–36 consec., including a No. 33A), in 1876–8. Though conventional in plan and restricted in width, they mark an attempt to invigorate the worn-out vocabulary of town-house design by surface enrichment of the elevations in a 'Gothic' spirit. The Emperor's Gate enclave drew the middle-class inhabitants commonly attracted to this part of Kensington.
In the 1922 phone book he is listed as Dr Harold Huskinson at 6 Westminster Palace Gardens, Victoria, London. Between 1927 and 1933 he is resident at 7 Victoria Square, London. Victoria Square is a small residential square, located just to the south-west of Buckingham Palace. The square comprises about 25 residential houses, which are all Grade 2* listed as being of special historic interest. These are five-storey stucco-fronted properties designed by the architect William Wyatt constructed in the late 1830s to celebrate the beginning of Queen Victoria's reign.
A former resident is Ian Fleming, who lived at number 16 Victoria Square from 1953 until his death in 1964.
In 1933 Harold and Helen move out of London to Mosscroft, Binfield, near Bracknell. In the phone directories Harold is listed as a Surgeon and Captain in the Royal Navy. In directories in the late 1930s, the address is listed as Croft Cottage, Binfield, where Harold is listed until 1952.
Helen died in 1952 in the district of Windsor, England. I have been unable to locate information regarding Harold’s death.

Percy Lambe Huskinson 1873 - 1927 (2nd Cousin, 3 x removed)
Includes Muriel Katherine Bayley 1880-1933, Geofrey Neville Bayley Huskinson 1900 - 1982, Thomas Leonard Bousfield Huskinson 1905 -
Percy Lambe Huskinson was born at Epperstone, Notts on the 18 May 1973. He was the 6th son of William Lambe Huskinson and Emily Jessie Creft.
In the 1881 census, he can be found living at Epperstone with his family, supported by 5 servants. I have been unable to locate Percy on the 1891 census.
In 1899 on 31 July Percy married Muriel Katherine Bayley at All Saints, Westminster, London. Muriel was born to Anne Farmer in 1880. The daughter of the composer Henry Farmer, Anne, left her husband, Thomas Bayley, a rich coal owner who was Member of Parliament for Chesterfield, and bought the new Langar Hall. She and Thomas were eventually reconciled and are buried together in the church. Muriel, their elder daughter, bought out her siblings' interest in the estate and married Percy Huskinson, son of William Lambe Huskinson of Epperstone Manor.
Percy and Muriel had a son Geoffrey Neville Bayley Huskinson on the 1st February 1900. He was born in Locarno, Switzerland. The following year in the 1901 census Percy is listed as living at Meadow Lane, Burton Joyce, Nottingham. His occupation is listed as a mechanical engineer. He employed to servants to support the family.
In 1905, his second son Thomas Leonard Bousfield Huskinson is born. Percy is listed in Nottingham directories as being resident at North Lodge, The Park, Nottingham until the mid 1920s. He is also listed as a director of Huskinson and Ashwell, who are "Auto Mobile Supply Agents". I believe North Lodge is now the Waltons Hotel, which still has many of the original features of the Hunting Lodge.
In his later life the BT phone book lists him as a resident of Langar Hall, Barnstone. He died on 14 February 1927. Probate to Muriel Katherine Huskinson, widow £1772 14s. His wife Muriel dies in 1933.
During the mid 1920's Geoffrey Neville Bayley Huskinson meets and marries Carmen Imogen De Las Casas. They go on to have 4 children including Geoffrey M C Huskinson (a Cricket player for the Free Foresters, and Prominent English Cartoonist) and Imogen the current owner of Langar Hall.
Following the death of his mother Muriel, Geoffrey moves into Langar Hall. He was a cricketer and President of Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club. He also played Rugby for England. He often invited famous cricketers to stay at the hall. He laid out and replanted the gardens and named an avenue of willow trees after famous cricketers and Officers of the Grenadier Guards.
Geoffrey died in 1982. His obituary can be found in Wisden.
HUSKINSON, GEOFFREY NEVILLE BAYLEY, died at Hinton Waldrist on June 17, 1982, aged 82. In the Oundle Eleven from 1915 to 1917, he did not get a Blue at Oxford but played for Nottinghamshire in their first two matches in 1922 and in the second made 33 against Glamorgan. He also appeared a number of times for Nottinghamshire Second Eleven, occasionally acting as captain. He was a useful bat and a good field at slip or cover and was related by marriage to the great Richard Daft. A member of the county Committee from 1943 to 1958, he was President in 1959 and 1960 and a Vice-President from 1961. At his home, Langar Hall, he used to grow cricket bat willows. He had also been a first-class rugger player, and, when advancing years forced him to give up cricket, he made himself into a good enough croquet player to represent Nottinghamshire at that game too.
Thomas Leonard B Huskinson married Helen Margaret Hales in 1929 in Nottingham. T. L. B. Huskinson was a published illustrator. Some of the published credits of T. L. B. Huskinson include Phineas Redux (Oxford World's Classics), Phineas Finn: The Irish Member (Oxford World's Classics) . He studied at Slade School for fine art in London. He has a solo at the Beaux Arts Gallery in London in 1934.
In the 1930s he taught at Radley College, Oxford, later becoming a chief examiner for the Oxford and Cambridge exam board. He lived at "Corner", then moving to Cromwells House around 1933 in Woodstock. Number 28 High Street is known as CROMWELL'S HOUSE. Dating from around 1640, it has bow windows and a substantial canopy over the front door. It owes its name to the slight tradition that Oliver Cromwell lodged here in 1646, during the siege of Woodstock Manor.
Between 1939 and 1952 Thomas lived at Parsonage House, Stanton Harcourt, Standlake. Then at Combe Nettleton, Washford until about 1963. He then moved to Church Farm House, Faringdon, where the last trace of him is in the 1970 BT phone book. Church Farm House is a listed 18th Century building in the village of Little Farringdon. He died in 1974
In the 1881 census, he can be found living at Epperstone with his family, supported by 5 servants. I have been unable to locate Percy on the 1891 census.

He was a useful bat and a good field at slip or cover and was related by marriage to the great Richard Daft. A member of the county Committee from 1943 to 1958, he was President in 1959 and 1960 and a Vice-President from 1961. At his home, Langar Hall, he used to grow cricket bat willows. He had also been a first-class rugger player, and, when advancing years forced him to give up cricket, he made himself into a good enough croquet player to represent Nottinghamshire at that game too.
Thomas Leonard B Huskinson married Helen Margaret Hales in 1929 in Nottingham. T. L. B. Huskinson was a published illustrator. Some of the published credits of T. L. B. Huskinson include Phineas Redux (Oxford World's Classics), Phineas Finn: The Irish Member (Oxford World's Classics) . He studied at Slade School for fine art in London. He has a solo at the Beaux Arts Gallery in London in 1934.
In the 1930s he taught at Radley College, Oxford, later becoming a chief examiner for the Oxford and Cambridge exam board. He lived at "Corner", then moving to Cromwells House around 1933 in Woodstock. Number 28 High Street is known as CROMWELL'S HOUSE. Dating from around 1640, it has bow windows and a substantial canopy over the front door. It owes its name to the slight tradition that Oliver Cromwell lodged here in 1646, during the siege of Woodstock Manor.
Between 1939 and 1952 Thomas lived at Parsonage House, Stanton Harcourt, Standlake. Then at Combe Nettleton, Washford until about 1963. He then moved to Church Farm House, Faringdon, where the last trace of him is in the 1970 BT phone book. Church Farm House is a listed 18th Century building in the village of Little Farringdon.
