Notes for Anne Margaret Graham
Most likely the painter of the watercolours of Edmond Castle that were auctioned by Lunds in the 1990s or early 2000s.
A plaque in Hayton church reads:
“In memory of ROBERT GRAHAM POLHILL, Lieutenant in her Majesty’s 95th regiment, who fell in front of his regiment defending the colours at the battle of Alma. September 20th 1854, aged 26. In this memorable action the 95th was most conspicuous, and its loss enormous. Lieutenant Polhill was the second son of Edward Polhill, esqre, of Brighton, and of Anne Margaret, the youngest daughter of the late Thomas Graham, Esqre, of Edmond Castle, Cumberland, and great grandson of Nathaniel Polhill, of Howbury Esqre, M.P.”
Their first child was Emily, born 182416
From the Lambeth Archives:
“The collection consists of verses, letters and a year's edition of the Family Chronicle, a news paper produced by the children detailing the week's happenings in an imitation of grand society reporting. Many of the other verses may have been intended for this Chronicle (also known as the Strawseat Chronicle), which appears to have continued for longer than the year's editions preserved here. The verses by Mrs Graham are particularly interesting as she had published, under the pseudonym Theresa Tidy, a popular work called Eighteen Maxims on Neatness and Order.
The letters Reveal a great deal about the family, about individuals and incidentally about the social life of the time. Many concern Anne, who after her marriage in 1823 became somewhat weighed down with domestic cares. For some years the Polhills lived in France, where they could manage on less money, but nothing is known of the latter part of Anne's life. She died in Brighton in 1882.”
