Hi
John Charles (Charlie) Boon was my husbands great uncle, Marjorie, (Grandma) was his only sibling.
There is a great deal documented about Charlie via the Henry Williamson Society. HW was an author of great repute and he used Charlie in many of his books, in particular he was the character Percy Pickering. You might find this interesting

Charlie was a young man who went to Bedford Modern School and lived in Aspley Guise with his one sister Marjorie, (Polly Pickering in HW's books).
He lost in life in the Somme sometime around 16th November but no one can be exactly sure of the date.
Marjorie married a man names Turney and there are several children still living who would be able to give you lots more information than I. Good luck.
