Charles Babbage died on 18 October 1871, in Marylebone, London, at the age of 79. He was buried in London's Kensal Green Cemetery. His death marked the end of a prominent life dedicated to science, invention, and mathematics, although many of his designs, including the Difference Engine and Analytical Engine, remained incomplete during his lifetime.

Georgiana Whitmore, the wife of Charles Babbage, died in Worcester on 1 September 1827. This year was marked by significant losses for Babbage, as his father, their second son (also named Charles) and their newborn son Alexander also died in the same year.

Charles Babbage married Georgiana Whitmore on 25 July 1814, at St. Michael's Church in Teignmouth, Devon. This marriage marked a significant personal event in Babbage's life and established a family that would eventually include eight children, although only four survived childhood.

Charles Babbage was baptised on 6 January 1792, according to the parish register of St. Mary's, Newington, London. This event followed his birth on 26 December 1791 and confirms the year of his birth, dispelling some initial confusion from his obituary in The Times.

Charles Babbage was born on 26 December 1791, most likely at 44 Crosby Row, Walworth Road, London, England. This date marks the beginning of the life of the English polymath, mathematician, philosopher, inventor and mechanical engineer who originated the concept of a digital programmable computer.
