I have the Deacon family

Benjamin James Deacon 1789-1857 London
Charlotte (nee Forster) b 1806 London?
Benjamin William Deacon bap 1828 St Giles, Bloomsbury
James Meres Deacon bap 1829 St Giles Bloomsbury
Charlotte Maria Deacon bap 1833 St Marylebone

In 1829 the family lived on Kingsgate St, London

The 1841 census has Charlotte with James and Charlotte living in St Lukes, Chelsea.
The 1851 census has Benjamin James living at 48 Hunter St, Bloomsbury, with his sister Elizabeth D.
In 1851 James Meres is teaching in Chesterfield.

Could this be her in 1851:-

Thank you all for that info. Is there any other Charlotte Deacon b 1806 around for that census? I'm struggling to identify the correct one.

The nearest others in the 1851 census is one born c. 1810 in Somerset and one born c. 1811 in Northamptonshire.

Where have you got your information about Charlotte from? How have you got back to her?

I think these findings are a different family. Benjamin did have a brother called Joseph, but he was in Liverpool, and his children had different names.
I now have a church record for Benjamin and Charlottes marriage.

Where was Benjamin James Deacon in 1841?
Where was Charlotte Deacon and her daughter Charlotte, or Maria, in 1851?

I have tried many variations of spelling, does anyone have any further ideas please?

I have pulled this problem out for another wrestle. I have updated the first and last postings in the hope that a fresh pair of eyes might be able to help, please?
