very difficult when trying to find decendants. He was said to have been born somewhere in Ireland. He married a Caroline ? and had at least 3 children. The eldest being my 2xgreatgrandfather who changed his name somewhere between 1881 and 1891 to Charles J Fortescue, who married a Florence Seaman. I have lots of information on CharlesJ Fortescue and his wife Florence, but cannot find anything on Charles J Verner.
