Re Ann apparently adding to her Baptised name, I have seen a few examples of this in my family tree, with son's taking their father's forename too, for example, in later Census's. In my case for no obvious reason such as commemorating the father's recent death, say.

Charlotte was a popular name in Victorian Dean, including several Nelmes I see.
Perhaps this example is a relation of your Ann ?

Is it perhaps possible you have mixed-up mother and daughter ? Sadly I cannot see a full Marriage Record on this site for James & Ann to further clarify things.

That said, I now see this Charlotte is shown in the 1871 Shapridge Census posted at start of thread, so ??
