Journals and diaries of Emily Charlotte Seymour and her mother,

Journals and diaries of Emily Charlotte Seymour (married name Ormsby-Gore), dated between 1844 and 1890. The first seven volumes contain accounts of the family's voyages with her father, Admiral Sir George Francis Seymour, to Chile, Peru and the Falkland Islands, and overland journeys from Valparaiso to Santiago and elsewhere in Chile, 1844-1847, followed by visits to Juan Fernandes and Rio [de Janeiro] in 1848, describing throughout the travelling conditions, climate, landscape, animals, native inhabitants, immigrant settlers, entertainments and systems of government. The contents of some of the volumes are repeated. The later volume of 1890 is mostly concerned with family and domestic matters at Brogyntyn and in London; it also reflects Emily 's interests in music, high society, the Victorian court, parliamentary news, conservative politics and the Primrose League, and her involvement with the Oswestry and Ellesmere Cottage Hospital, Pantglas School and general parish affairs in Selatyn, Oswestry and Llanfihangel-y-Traethau. There is also a diary of her mother, Georgiana Mary Seymour, containing brief entries relating to family and friends, 1869-1870.
