From left to right: Anne, Emily, and Charlotte (there still remains a shadow of Branwell, which appeared after he painted himself out) Charlotte Bront? Life Works Born: 21 April 1816 Died:31 March 1855 (aged 38)  Life: The life of Charlotte Bront? . The posthumous biography of Charlotte Bront? by Gaskell, was the first of many biographies about Charlotte to be published. Though frank in places, Gaskell suppressed details of Charlottes love for Heger, a married man, as being too much of an affront to contemporary morals and as a possible source of distress to Charlottes still-living friends, father and husband (Lane 1853 178–183). Gaskell also provided doubtful and inaccurate information about Patrick Bront?, claiming, for example, that he did not allow his children to eat meat. This is refuted by one of Emily Bront?s diary papers, in which she describes the preparation of meat and potatoes for dinner at the parsonage, as Juliet Barker points out in her recent biography, The Bront?s. It was discovered that Charlotte wrote 20 manuscript pages of a book, but died before she could finish; Clare Boylan finished it in 2007 as Emma Brown: A Novel from the Unfinished Manuscript by Charlotte Bront?.
