Frederick jnr getting the estate kind of confirms that he was leading a double life, as the law stationer certainly did not have a son called Frederick with the wife he appears with most often!
I don't suppose you have stumbled over any possible marriages? I have tried so hard to find marriages to a wife called Champion and one called Warner. And then there is the coincidence of Frederick the law stationer probate to Benjamin Warner who was likely born Bethnal Green, and the mothers maiden name of all the children being Warner, and Harriet the mother being born Bethnal Green. I don't really believe in such coincidences...….

From my access to the newspapers all of the hits just seem to refer to an ongoing case and just say Chifferiel v Watson and no information. The FMP hits are notices about the sale of property pursuant to the judgement, and as the newspapers are still referring to Chifferiel v Watson in 1896, I doubt it happened in a hurry!

He has no son on any census except Frederick, if that really is Fred snr posing as a commercial traveler with Harriet in 1871. I imagine if you need to duck off and spend time with another family, posing as a commercial traveler is a good way to explain prolonged absences from home! Fred jnr went off to live in America in about 1897 I think, and does not seem to have any employment on the USA census, maybe he did not need to work!
