Charlotte Sharman (1832–1929) was a Christian woman who ran orphanages for girls in West Square Southwark, Gravesend, Hampton, and Tunbridge Wells.〔''Charlotte Sharman. The Romance of a Great Saint''. Marguerite Williams. The Religious Tract Society, 193?. There is also a German version of this book called ''Charlotte Sharman, die Mutter der Tausend Kinder'', by Marguerite Williams and Paul LeSeur, 1929.〕 She, in the course of her lifetime, cared for and educated over 1,200 destitute children.〔Booklet written by Charlotte Sharman "Remembering the Way. The Story of the Orphans Home"〕 The lady was an apostle of practical religion. == Youth == Sharman was born on 19 May 1832〔Born in the parish of St George the Martyr and baptised 23 January 1833 RG4/4202〕 in Southwark, called The Borough by Londoners of the time, and was the younger daughter of Frederick (Thomas〔Also known as Thomas according to the 1841 Census record〕) and Phoebe Sharman. Her year of birth was the same year as George Müller, another director of orphanages, arrived in Bristol. It was to be the place where Müller began an inspiring project that caught the imagination of the young Charlotte. She and her sister Phoebe were baptised in the Congregational Church in Walpole Road. Her father was a general labourer, and in the 1841 census he and his family were recorded as living at Union Place, Newington, in the borough of Lambeth. He worked in a shoe factory at the time. Her mother was the daughter of William West, a gardener who won a silver trophy award for his development of the garden in the centre of West Square. West Square was to become the main place of his granddaughter's orphanages. As a child Sharman was physically very frail, and her mother educated her at home because of her delicate constitution.
