- See notes on his father's record. His BIRTH year is given in the WARNER Family History as 1866 but elsewhere as 1886
His MARRIAGE date to Audrey WEBB is also debateable as it given as 17 Oct 1910
and yet his first daughter HAZEL was born 1906 [WHO IS THIS HAZEL?] and son CHARLES SELWYN was born 1 Nov 1910. (Marriage record found September 2014 married 6 October 1908 in Cala Anglican Church.
It is presumed here that the year of is 2nd marriage is 1911 and that Hazel and Charles Selwyn are children by his fist marriage to Rosa DODD

From Jennifer Jonson recalling Charles Harold Selwyn Warner and his daughter, Mary-Jo Warner written in about 1984.
'I remember 'Uncle Harold' well as Mary-Jo's father and from conversation but have almost no memories of him. Apart from a very brief meeting with him after I grew up, the last time I saw him I was only 6 years old. My mother and I spent a holiday with him and his first wife, Cora in 1946 but apart from the fact that he worked on the Brakpan mine at the time and showed us cine films, which to me was wildly exciting, I do not remember anything else.
Mary-Jo has a wonderful memory [of this visit] but as I was eighteen months younger than she was, mine is not nearly as good. My father used to recount the episode where I threatened to eat her but I do not recall it myself. Thinking about it, I do not recall fighting with her, only that I was told of certain occasions when we did, so perhaps we did play well together. I do remember her and her mother staying with us during the war and also my mother and I staying with them afterwards. Our mothers were very good friends. I also recall the adventurein the mud although I don't remember that we were trying to disguise ourselves and I do recall the 'patches' bit. My mother certainly would not have approved!
I am pleased to say that as a result of this project, Mary-Jo and I recently met, after 40 years, and got on extremely well. So thank you Ruth for putting us in touch after all this time.'
