I don't find anybody named Charles Bedford in Savage's _Geneealogical
Dictionary_ ...

_Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society_, n.s., 13
(1899-1900):478 ("Andros Records"):

[23 Sept. 1687]

The severall Townes in the County of Essex except Salem Newberry and
Marble head, having neglected and refused to do their dutyes in
choosing a Commissioner and makeing the lists and Assessments of their
respective Inhabitants as by Law they ought.
_Ordered._ That Charles Bedford Esqre High Sheriffe of the said
County with Wm Browne, John Hawthorne and Phillip Nelson Esqrs
Justices of the peace within the said County or any two of them doe
summons [sic] the Inhabitants in their respective Townes to meete
together and to bring a particular account of their Estates as by Law
directed, and that the Select men attend accordingly ...

The Andros council papers also mention someone called "John Herbert
Coward" that I've not encountered before.
