Description
elder daughter of the Rev. John Marriott
Biography
Either she or her sister Mary Ann Marriott was Money Spinner, a particularly brilliant contributor to the Spider Society in the Monthly Packet. In the 1901 census they were living together at Eastleigh, and one of them must therefore be the Miss Marriott who organised the reprinting of Last Heartsease Leaves in 1900.
