Research Notes:
We were told by our Mum that Grampa was named Humbert because his grandfather had worked as a groomsman for King Umberto of Italy (which seemed like a family tale to be honest) so when I saw that John and Eliza had a son named Humbert before Grampa was born and that he indeed was born in Italy as well as his younger sister, it all rather came together for me.
Notice that Humbert Jones is not listed with the family in 1901 so I checked BMD for the period 1891-1901 and found: Humbert Isaac Jones died 4Q 1893 Age 9 St. George Hanover Square, London Vol 1A page 344
Isaac was John Jones' father's name so that fit together for me as well.
