The city of Charlotte located east of Fairfax? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rochester

I believe this is a double definition.

'the city' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'charlotte located east of fairfax?' is the second definition.
(Charlotte Bronte created Edward Fairfax Rochester)

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for rochester that I've seen before include "Jane's husband eventually" , "Kent cathedral city" , "Medway town (and former city)" , "Madwoman's husband" , "Jane Eyre accepted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
