Mrs Charlotte Baskerville Mynors
(1824-1883)

[This portrait does not appear in the Silvy daybooks, so the sitter probably visited the studio sometime between July 1863 and June 1864, the period covered by the missing volume.]

Born at Calcutta in India in or about 1824, Horatia Charlotte Campbell Crawfurd was the daughter of John Crawfurd of Blackbrook House, Skenfrith, Monmouthshire. Some sources give her first name as Horatio, but for most of her life she went by her second name, Charlotte.

She appears on the 1851 census living with her parents at Blackbrook House. Her father, who was born in Scotland, gave 'Landed Proprietor and Magistrate' as his profession.

On 19 February 1855 she married Reverend Edmund Baskerville Mynors, who was then the Curate of East and West Cranmore in Somerset. Their marriage produced one son and four daughters. 

At the time of the 1881 census she was living at the Rectory in Ashley, Wiltshire, with her husband, three daughters, a son-in-law and seven servants, including a butler and a footman. 

Mrs Charlotte Horatia Campbell Baskerville Mynors died, aged 59, on 13 March 1883. She was buried on 17 March 1883 at Ashey in Gloucestershire.
