| 释义 |
Katherine was the daughter and co-heir of Admiral Hon. John Forbes and his wife, the former Lady Mary Capell, daughter of William Capell, 3rd Earl of Essex.[2] Her sister, Maria, became Countess of Clarendon. On 17 May 1784, in London, she married Wellesley-Pole,[3] then known as William Wesley-Pole. The earl and countess had one son and three daughters:
In 1789, Wesley-Pole changed the spelling of his surname to Wellesley-Pole, in keeping with the practice of other family members.[7] In 1821, he became Baron Maryborough, and his wife became Lady Maryborough. In 1842, when he inherited the earldom of Mornington from his older brother, Richard Wellesley, Katherine became Countess of Mornington. Following the earl's death in 1845, the earldom passed to their eldest son. The countess died at her London home in Grosvenor Square, and was buried with her husband and other members of the family at Grosvenor Chapel. A watercolour portrait of the countess, by William Wood, was given by her to her daughter in 1844.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.royalacademy.org.uk/art-artists/name/katherine-elizabeth-wellesley-pole-countess-mornington|title=Katherine Elizabeth Wellesley-Pole, Countess Mornington|website=Royal Academy|access-date=27 December 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Mornington, Katherine Wellesley-Pole, Countess of}}2. ^Mosley, Charles, editor.
