Lambeth St John the Evangelist, Surrey on 28 Mar 1847. 

Charles and Amelia Baker, it would appear, had six children:

6. Ellen Rosina Baker b. 1866 S Quarter in SAINT GEORGE IN THE EAST Volume 01C Page 398. Registered as Ellen Susannah, the mother's maiden name is also shown as Young. Always known as Ellen Rosina, it appears the registration was listed or transcribed incorrectly.

High Roding is very much a linear settlement with very little development
back from The Street - which follows the line of a Roman Road.

Charles Young (b. 1857 S Quarter in DUNMOW UNION Volume 04A Page 309), son of Isaac Young and Emma Holgate, married Sarah Charlotte Hockley (b. 5 May 1860 in Great Dunmow), daughter of William Hockley and Charlotte Cock, at St Mary the Virgin, Great Dunmow, on 9 Nov 1890.

Sarah Charlotte Hockley had an illegitimate child, Alice Jane Hockley b. 1879 M Qtr in DUNMOW Vol 04A 472, bap. 14 Sep 1879 at St Mary the Virgin - the baptism confirms Sarah was her mother. In 1881, Alice was staying with her grandparents, while Sarah C Hockley (20) was working as a Domestic Servant in the household of Amelia Hockley (32) widow, Lodging house keeper at Hockerill, Bishop Stortford, Hertfordshire. Alice Jane died, aged 8, in 1887 J Qtr in DUNMOW Vol 04A 314 and was buried on 7 May 1887.

Charles and Sarah Charlotte Young added three children:

In 1891, Charles Young (33) Agricultural Labourer and Sarah Charlotte Young (31), were living with Charles' widowed father, Isaac Young (68) and sister Lois Annie Young (26) in High Roding, Essex.

In 1901, Charles Young (42) Horse Keeper on Farm, Sarah Young (40), Alice (9), Arthur (7) and Charles (3) were living at Brands Farm, Great Dunmow.

In 1911, Charles Young (51) Horseman on Farm, Sarah Young (50), Arthur Young (17) also Horseman on Farm and Charles Young (13) General Labourer on Farm, were living at Brands Farm, Great Dunmow. Brands Farm, Ongar Road, Dunmow. Brands Farm House dates from the early 16th century and is Grade II* Listed. This census confirms they had three children during their then 20 years of marriage. Alice Annie Young (19), meanwhile, was a Domestic Servant in the household of Harry Gowlett (53) Farmer at The Hall, Great Canfield. (The History of Great Canfield mentions The Hall.)

In 1921, Charles Young (62) Farm Foreman for H Gowlett Esq Farmer; Sarah Charlotte Young (61) were still at Brands Farm, Great Dunmow, with Claude Leslie Dodd (19) Railway Clerk from Stratford, Essex, as a visitor.

Sarah Charlotte Young died, aged 80, in 1941 J Quarter in DUNMOW Volume 04A Page 1674. The Essex Newsman on 10 May 1941, clearly a slow news day, reported on the "SUDDEN DEATH - Mrs Sarah Charlotte Young, aged 80, was found dead in her bedroom. Death was due to natural causes."
