WORDSWORTH

The Webbs tell us that Rev John Wordsworth, of Brigham, Cumberland, son of the poet, married his third wife Marian Dolan at St James, Picadilly, officiated by Derwent Coleridge, Samuel Taylor Coleridge's third son. She is the daughter of Luke Dolan of Galway. They have a child, Dora, born in the Lake District in 1858. By 1861 they may have been on the Continent as they do not appear in that Census. On 28 November Mrs Wordsworth signs her name in the membership book of the Gabinetto Vieusseux. Her death notices appear in the Pall Mall Gazette, the Times and the Morning Post, noting that her husband is Rev. John Wordsworth, Vicar of Brigham, Cumberland. An earlier marriage to Isabella (Curwen) Wordsworth was in difficulty when she became ill following childbirth and the pair journeyed to Rome where John had an affair with a sixteen-year-old Italian girl, promising to marry her when his wife died, Henry Curwen threatened to tell John's bishop and informed William Wordsworth, both parents willing their money to the grandchildren only. Isabella, her children restored to her, died at Bagni di Lucca in 1848: Kate Summerscale, Mrs Robinson's Disgrace. Sothebys in 2010 sold William Wordsworth's annotated copy of Southey's Poems, which Rev. John Wordsworth presented to his wife, Marian Wordsworth, 17 August 1866: Signed 'W. Wordsworth, Rydal Mount', by descent to Rev John Wordsworth, presentation inscription to his wife Marianne Wordworth, 17 August 1866.
