More can be added to the earlier biography.
Charlton was a more active member of the gentry community of his native Middlesex than his more prominent son. He frequently attested his neighbours’ deeds, and (as far as the evidence of parliamentary election returns enables us to tell) regularly attended the county court.
Although the acquisition of his wife’s paternal inheritance largely passed without incident, there were occasional challenges, such as a suit over holdings in Edmonton and Enfield brought in the court of common pleas in Easter term 1433 by the heirs of the London goldsmith John Burdeyn.
The execution of Charlton’s will, of which no details have been discovered, was entrusted to his widow, Elizabeth.
