Baldock/Fagg/Small Family History

My father’s aunt, Christine FAGG nee HAUGHTON, was the daughter of Noel HAUGHTON and Vera Marguerite NOWILL (of the reknowned Nowill family who made cutlery in Sheffield throughtout the 1800’s).
Anecdotes stated that Noel was German and changed his name from HAGGERSTADT (or any number of variants; true spelling unknown) during WWI, presumably to avoid repercussions.
However, having just received a copy of Noel & Vera’s marriage certificate this weekend, it lists his occupation as Chief Engine Room Artificer on H.M.S. Prince Rupert, and his father as one Robert HAUGHTON, a Marine Engineer!

Now I’m confused … ! I’ve not been able to find much beyond this for either name, and certainly am struggling to determine where to go from here.

Any suggestions welcome!!

Apologies to all and anyone who has started visiting this blog – it has taken me ages to pick a theme that appears to behave itself, and do what I want! I have compromised on “Quentin”, by Mike Purdy (thank, Mike!), for it’s retro appearance which probably suits a history site better!

.. But don’t be surprised if I change my mind again in the future!

I visited Dover St. Mary’s Cemetery and Eastry Cemetery yesterday, the first to get some dates of relatives I knew were buried there, and the latter to see if I could find any! Eastry features a lot in my family. My grandmother (one of ten children) was born in Eastry, as was most of her family.
The visits provided me with some confirmed dates, and some names/dates to investigate.
