| 释义 |
She was the daughter of Charles Duncombe, 1st Baron Feversham, by his wife, the former Lady Charlotte Legge. She married the earl on 1 October 1831,[3] some years prior to his succeeding his grandfather in the earldom, when he was known as Viscount Encombe.[4] They had a stillborn son in 1832[5] before successfully parenting a further seven children:
In the period of their marriage, parts of the Eldon estate were sold off for industrial purposes, notably for the building of the Clarence Railway and Little Chilton Colliery.[6] She died, aged 45, in London, after a short illness.[6] A few months later, Lord Eldon was found by a "Commission of Lunacy" to be of unsound mind.[7] It was said that he had suffered from partial dementia since 1851 but that his wife "had managed the property of her husband, and had also managed him with great affection and tact". He survived the countess by two years and died in September 1854, aged 48. He was succeeded in the earldom by his only son, John.
