In fact, she had by now begun appearing in public almost exclusively as a male. This becomes apparently indistinct when Charke joined Jockey Adams' touring company outside of London in 1741 and assumed the billing her Mr Charles Brown. There is no way of telling why she chose the name Brown, there is a possibility that it was chosen because of her elder sister, Catherine Brown. Within "The Narrative" Charke recalls this male persona going as far as to be the 'improper object'(57) of love, from an orphan heiress whose name has vanished from history. Shevelow names her as Mary Harlowe. Charke speaks in her memoir of the moment they met, 'making a general bow to the room'(58), before Charke, disguised as Mr Brown unveiled her true identity to Ms Harlowe, to which she was astonished and ashamed. Although the identity of the young woman remains "shadowy", many historians believe that she is indeed "Mrs. Brown". Unable to earn a living in the sanctioned theatres, Charlotte began to work any job she could to support herself and Catherine, but she was always attracted to jobs she could perform as a man. Therefore, she was a valet to Richard Annesley, 6th Earl of Anglesey, and then even took up as a sausage maker. Anglesey was famous as a bigamist and libertine, and lived with a paramour during Charlotte's employ. Charlotte claimed that when Anglesey was not entertaining guests, the trio would dine together as friendly equals. As a valet's service would indeed be personal, normally including dressing one's master for the day, the entire arrangement would have been quite unusual. (Anglesey was soon a central party to an infamous scandal, being dispossessed of his lands—but allowed to continue using his title—after a court ruled that he had sold his young kinsman, James Annesley, who had a better claim to the inheritance, into slavery.)
