BiographyMary Lloyd was born in Denbighshire, Wales, the eighth of seventeen children, and the first of six girls, to Edward Lloyd of Rhagatt and his wife Frances Maddocks.[1] Her father was a substantial squire over many counties, owning 4,300 acres of land, and Mary inherited money from a maiden aunt, Margaret, as well as gifts from Eleanor Charlotte Butler and Sarah Ponsonby, the Ladies of Llangollen. Both of her parents died in 1858. Mary studied and worked with French artist Rosa Bonheur.[1] In 1853 she was working in the studio of Welsh sculptor John Gibson in Rome, along with American sculptor Harriet Hosmer.[2] Mary met Frances Power Cobbe in the winter of 1861-2, in Rome. Mary and Frances networked with like minded women in Italy in the period, both being noncomformist, with a feminist outlook. In 1863, they settled together in London. In 1858 Lloyd inherited a share in the Welsh landed estate of Hengwrt.[3] This allowed Lloyd to refer to herself as a landed proprietor when signing petitions supporting women's suffrage, and also gave her some local political rights, such as the ability to appoint a vicar.[2] She and Frances Power Cobbe retired to Hengwrt from London in April 1884.[4] Mary died in 1896 from heart disease and was buried together with Frances Power Cobbe in Saint Illtud Church Cemetery, Llanelltyd.[4] Relationship with Frances Power CobbeMary and Frances were a couple, and were recognised as such by all their friends. Letters would be address to “you and Miss Lloyd” and Frances peppered her own writings with ‘our house’, ‘our garden’, ‘we’ and other joint terminology. Frances writing to her friend Mary Somerville refers to Mary as ‘my wife’ and Mary’s death in 1896 affected Frances badly. Her friend, the writer Blanche Atkinson, writing, “The sorrow of Miss Lloyd’s death changed the whole aspect of existence for Miss Cobbe. The joy of life had gone. It had been such a friendship as is rarely seen – perfect in love, sympathy, and mutual understand.” [5] References1. ^{{cite book|last=Cherry|first=Deborah|title=Beyond the Frame: Feminism and Visual Culture, Britain 1850 -1900|year=2000|publisher=Routledge}} {{Authority control}}{{New Woman (late 19th century)}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Lloyd, Mary}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last=Mitchell|first=Sally|title=Frances Power Cobbe: Victorian Feminist, Journalist, Reformer|year=2004|publisher=University of Virginia Press}} 3. ^http://histfam.familysearch.org/getperson.php?personID=I158815&tree=Welsh (cited to Walford, County Families of the United Kingdom, p. 359) 4. ^1 {{cite book|last1=McAuliffe|first1=Mary|last2=Tiernan|first2=Sonja|title=Tribades, Tommies and Transgressives; History of Sexualities: Volume I|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ousYBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA96|date=26 March 2009|publisher=Cambridge Scholars Publishing|isbn=978-1-4438-0788-3|page=96}} 5. ^Shopland, Norena 'Frances and Mary' from Forbidden Lives: LGBT stories from Wales Seren Books (2017) 9 : 1819 births|1896 deaths|Lesbian artists|British women sculptors|Welsh sculptors|19th-century British sculptors|19th-century British women artists|LGBT artists from the United Kingdom|19th-century Welsh artists |
