- Charles Jane Ashley (Londres, 1773 – Margate, Kent, 29 d'agost de 1843) violoncel·lista director musical. Ashley va néixer a Londres, el tercer fill de John Ashley. Va ser intèrpret al violoncel, i també durant algun temps va continuar els oratoris del Covent Garden amb el seu germà, General Charles Ashley, violinista. També era germà de Richard i John James Ashley. Segons el llibre oficial commemoratiu del 300 aniversari de la Worshipful Company of Musicians (publicat el 1904/5), va ser un dels fundadors del Glee Club el 1793 i membre original de la Societat Filharmònica de Londres. El 2 de maig de 1811 va ser elegit secretari de la Royal Society of Musicians, de la qual havia estat membre des del 4 de maig de 1794. El 1791 i de 1794 a 1801, va ser nomenat pels governadors per tocar per al clergat de la catedral de Sant Pau, en el concert anual de beneficis de maig de la societat. Després de la mort del seu pare el 1805, ell i el seu germà Christopher van continuar els oratoris, i el 1817 va ser violoncel·lista en una banda al King's Theatre. En l'última part de la seva vida va ser durant algunes temporades manager dels Jardins de Tívoli a Margate, on va morir el 29 d'agost de 1843. Durant els seus últims anys, abans de la seva mort el 1843, Charles es va tornar bastant feble en salut, que podria haver estat a causa dels 19 anys que va passar a la presó per deute. Els pagaments que se li van fer per assistència mèdica des de 1835, van ser registrats a The Minute Books of the Royal Society of Musicians. (ca)
- Charles Jane Ashley (1773–1843) was an English cellist. Ashley was born in London, the third son of John Ashley. He was a performer on the violoncello, and also for some time carried on the Covent Garden oratorios with his brother, General Charles Ashley, a violinist. He was also the brother of Richard and John James Ashley. According to the official book commemorating the 300th anniversary of the Worshipful Company of Musicians (published in 1904/5), he was one of the founders of the Glee Club in 1793 and an original member of the Philharmonic Society of London. On 2 May 1811 he was elected secretary of the Royal Society of Musicians, of which he had been a member since 4 May 1794. In 1791 and from 1794 to 1801, he was named by the Governors to play for the clergy of St. Paul's Cathedral, at the society's annual May benefits concert. After his father's death in 1805, he and his brother Christopher continued the oratorios, and by 1817 he was a violoncellist in a band at the King's Theatre. In the latter part of his life he was for some seasons manager of the Tivoli Gardens at Margate, where he died on 29 August 1843. During his later years, before his death in 1843, Charles became quite weak in health, which may have been due to the 19 years he spent in prison over debt. The payments that were made to him for medical assistance from 1835, were recorded in The Minute Books of the Royal Society of Musicians. (en)
