The Honourable Mrs Hely-Hutchinson
(1788-1864)
12 March 1862

Volume 6, page 95, sitting number 7248.

This is almost certainly a relation of one of the Earls of Donoughmore, a title in the Peerage of Ireland. The likeliest match I can find is Harriot Wrightson, daughter of William Wrightson, who married firstly the Honourable Frederick Silvester North Douglas (1791-1819) and secondly, on 26 April 1825, Colonel Henry Hely-Hutchinson, son of the Honourable Francis Hely-Hutchinson and younger brother of the 3rd of Donoughmore. Her second marriage produced five daughters. In 1832, when his brother became 3rd Earl of Donoughmore, Henry Hely-Hutchison was granted the rank of an Earl's younger son. He died on 2 July 1834 at the age of 44.

The Honourable Mrs Harriot Hely-Hutchinson died on 16 July 1864 at 1 Upper Brook Street in Mayfair, leaving an estate valued at £2000. According to the abstract of her will, she also lived at 'Weston Lodge' in Northamptonshire. According to her gravestone, she lived at 'Weston Hall.' Her gravestone in the SS Mary and Peter churchyard in Weedon Lois in Northamptonshire gives her birthdate as 18 May 1788.
