Any help would be fantastic

Did Charlotte have any children with either husband?

According to 1861 census, she has a daughter Mary Griffin born 1827 Yatton Keynell Wilts. Unable to see her 1841 either. There is also a Richard Griffin on the page, same birthplace, a son maybe? Born1819.

Can't see Stephen in 1841, either.

Did consider this - but why would she use surname Griffin!

No idea currently of Stephen's age or place of birth or when he died

Question:
I have been unable to find the 1841 census for Castle Combe. Do you have a copy?

Answer:
Unfortunately the census enumerator's notebooks for some of the villages around Chippenham and Devizes have not survived. We do have the statistical information from them, which was compiled at the time, but the personal details of all the residents have been destroyed. Wiltshire parishes for which there are no enumerator's notebooks for 1841 are:

All Cannings Allington (near Devizes)
Alton Barnes Alton Priors
Castle Combe Chirton
Conock
Downton - The Borough (Enumeration Districts 5 and 6) Easterton
Etchilhampton Grittleton
Hardenhuish Kilmington
Leigh Delamere Littleton Drew
Marden Market Lavington
Minety Nettleton
North Wraxall Patney
Stanton St. Bernard West Kington
Yatton Keynell

Hi Chris i knew Yatton Keynell was destroyed for 1841 however as Charlotte was married in Chippenham and was in Chippenham in 1851 i thought that census may still be there

(looking at above, was thinking perhaps explains absence of Stephen 1841!)

Ah that might thanks Chris :)
