Yes brilliant that's him!

Newspapers are really an amazing source (I don't have a subscription at the moment but am planning on it). Thank you

And more fascinating info on his death...

From the Essex Standard:

On the 10th inst, an Inquest was held before CT Master, Esq, Coroner for the Town of Saffron Walden, on the body of Edward Cohen, Esq, of Great St. Helen's Bishopsgate-street. The deceased, who was proprietor of Brockells Farm, Radwinter, and had been staying there with his tenant Mr E Emson, was on the preceding day riding thence in a chaise with Mr E in order to take the coach at Walden the following morning, when sometime before he reached the latter place, he complained of severe indisposition, and was obliged to be left at a house near the common. Medical aid was immediately procured, but the unfortunate gentleman died in a few minutes. Verdict - Died by the visitation of God.

No I hadn't come across that, a brilliant find thank you! Interesting that his father Jacob is translated as James. And I didn't have his exact date of birth, so that really is fantastic. Quite bizarre that he was baptised in Harmondsworth. He was married in a church in 1811, also strange that he could have done so without being baptised. But it's no doubt that it's him.

Could wife Mary Ann be buried with her husband?  Also, see my Reply #14 re Mary Ann.

Wow brilliant - I'll apply to have a look at the death duty entry, her son William at 14 Clements Inn was the administrator.
