Frances Elizabeth Younghusband was the daughter of George Younghusband.2 She married, firstly, Lieutenant Edward Elers before 1813.2
[[ I found a marriage record for them on IGI as:

She married, secondly, Admiral Sir Charles Napier, Count Napier St. Vincent on 12 June 1815 in Holy Trinity, Gosport, Hampshire, England.2,1 She died on 19 December 1857.2
Frances Elizabeth Younghusband also went by the nick-name of Eliza.2 From before 1813, her married name became Elers.2 From 12 June 1815, her married name became Napier.2 She had four children by her first husband, who all took the surname of Napier.1

The deceased son's name was Charles Napier.
I can't find any records in the LDS files except for their marriage record.

Will keep snooping...

His obituary says he only had one child:

1851 Census just has him living with 4 servants and no family members.

*Found a published bio of him.
