• Notes

  According to her great-grandson, Francis Humphrys (b.1909), Frances was "considered a great beauty, and was painted by George Richmond, the noted artist, at least twice." Poor darling: married at about 21, bore 12 children, including twins, and dead at about 37 years of age. The first five children were born in Manchester, the next four in Ellastone, Staffs, the next two in London, and the last in Lower Moor, nr Eardisley, Herefordshire, where Frances died of puerperal fever with the birth of Elizabeth. And why were John and Walter (numbers 10 and 11) born in London?
