Charles Golding Constable (1821–1878) was a member of the British East India Company's navy, joining up in his youth. He was the second son of the painter John Constable and, on his elder brother John Charles's death in 1841, became head of the Constable family.
He oversaw the splitting-up of his father's studio collection in winter 1847/48. On his death in 1878 he was buried alongside John Charles and their parents in the family tomb at St John-at-Hampstead, Hampstead.
He was the only one of John Constable's children to have issue.[1]
