| Biographical notes |
Lettice Mary Banks (1716-1757) was the eldest daughter of Joseph Banks, M.P., of Revesby Abbey in Lincolnshire (1695-1741) and his first wife Anne Hodgkinson (d.1730). She had two younger sisters, Elizabeth and Margaret, two younger brothers and two little half-brothers. After the death of her father's second wife Catherine in 1736, Lettice seems to have become responsible for her younger siblings' welfare. Her second brother William, who inherited the estate, was the father of Joseph Banks (1743-1820), the botanist and traveller. |
