There is a section on the CWGC Website (or at least there used to be) where you can suggest amendments. It might be part of the "contact us" page.
I think you can upload documentation to support your submission too. |

Happy New Year Alex!
This looks like a scanning error. If you scroll down his CWGC page to Grave Registration his entry shows his name as Charles.
If you let the CWGC folks know via the Contact Us page they should correct his database entry without any hassle.
