Hanes bywgraffyddol
Benjamin Waddington (1749-1828), bought Llanover from the Cecil family of The Dyffryn, Glamorganshire, in about 1792. He married Georgina Mary Anne Port (1771-1850) of Ilam, Derbyshire, and they had six daughters. With the agreement of the other daughters, the Llanover estate was settled on the youngest daughter, Augusta (1802-1896). In 1823 she married Benjamin Hall (1802-1867) of Abercarn, and the neighbouring estates of Llanover and Abercarn were united. Benjamin Hall was created Baron Llanover in 1859, and Augusta is best remembered as Lady Llanover and as 'Gwenynen Gwent'. Benjamin and Georgina's eldest daughter Frances married Christian Charles Bunsen. Charles de Bunsen, grandson of Benjamin and Georgina Waddington, married Mary Isabell Waddington, his second cousin, thus uniting the two branches of the Waddington family.
Hanes archifol
Portions of some of the letters written to Georgina Mary Ann Waddington from her daughter Frances have been cut off or whole sentences containing details of her health during successive pregnancies and unpleasant comments on individuals have been crossed out. This is possibly the work of Augustus J. C. Hare who published some of the letters in 1879. The letters were rebound at NLW in 1974.
