Two marriages are recorded for a Charles Price Bennett [with very similar signatures], both showing him as bachelor: (1) to Mary Pearce 19/07/1794 at St John Hackney and (2) to Alice Adams 12/10/1803 at St Mary's Lambeth. The Charles Price Bennett who died 1832 aged 55 would have been very young to have made the first of these marriages.
The burial of a Charles Price Bennett of Camberwell aged 55 was recorded 15/09/1832 at St James Piccadilly.
Will of Charles Price otherwise Charles Roswell Bennett gentleman of Lyndhurst Hampshire [made in 1822] proved 29/10/1832. The will is short and uninformative: he left all his property to his wife and sole executrix, Harriet Maria Bennett.
