Title: Mary Jane Palmer (1832-1910), 1893 [Go to resource]
Description: Mary Jane Marsh was the daughter of a Quaker commission agent of Stoke Newington. In 1856, at the age of 24, she married the thirty-six year old Samuel Palmer. Although married in a Quaker meeting, the two soon afterwards became members of the Church of England. She and Samuel had eleven children. This portrait must have been drawn in her early sixties. The bonnet suggests that she continued to dress in a Quaker manner long after she and her husband had abandoned their dissenting roots.
