To help redress his loss of fortune, Nathaniel (Chauncy) sold the manor together with an estate known as Lordship Farm to his brother Charles, who had arrived in Dane End as a bachelor and had married Elizabeth Beale of Fitzroy Square, London, in 1817 at St. Marylebone Parish Church, and of her had two children, Elizabeth Snell in 1821 and Mary Snell in 1824.

He seems to have been of quieter disposition, shunning the social round and devoting himself to the life of church and village. He rarely missed the Vestry meeting and interested himself in the affairs of the poor. In 1840-41 he served as Sheriff of Hertfordshire. To his home as resident came Henry Edward Surtees, JP, DL, a Durham County Squire who in 1868 was elected MP for Hertfordshire. On a December day in 1843 he and Elizabeth, Charles' elder daughter, were married in Little Munden Church. She gave him three daughters, Elizabeth Ellen, Caroline Isabel, and Georgina Mary, and died in 1854 aged 33, her husband surviving her forty-one years.
