looking for the following London area Bradley family:

Charles Bradley, born Clerkenwell, 1817. Worked as a brass manufacturer; died between 1855 and 1861. Married in 1838 in London to Elizabeth Wallace, born around 1821, Surrey.

1841 census: Charles and Elizabeth at Old Street Rd, Shoreditch Tower Hamlets.

1861 census: Elizabeth, 42, widow with 5 children and 1 servant at 14 Clements Lane, Eastcheap:
Charles M, son 21
Elizabeth A, 19
Emily L, 17
Alexander W, 13
Sarah F, 5
Charlotte Lillyston, 18, servant from Ingatestone Essex

Possible 1871 listing at 1 Circus Place, Colman St, London:
Elizabeth, 52, widow
William, 18, son
Sarah A, 15
Because children's names differ from 1861, this is only a possible match.

Emily Lucy married William Kitching at Fryerning, Essex in 1870. At that time she listed her father as Charles, a gas fitter. It appears this may have actually referred to her brother.

Any connections or thoughts appreciated- thanks
