Eliza Lynch
Eliza Lynch (3 June 1835 – 25 July 1886) was the mistress of Francisco Solano López, president of Paraguay.
==Early life==
She was born Eliza Alicia Lynch in Charleville, County Cork, Ireland.〔Tom Hennigan: "Life of Cork woman and heroine in Paraguary to be featured in TV drama", Irish Times, 14 May 2011. (confirmed by baptismal certificate)〕 She emigrated at the age of ten with her family to Paris to escape the Great Irish Famine. On 3 June 1850, she married Xavier Quatrefages, a French officer who was shortly afterwards posted to Algeria. She accompanied him, but at eighteen years of age, due to deteriorating health,〔Bareiro Saguier, Ruben; Villagra Marsal, Carlos. ‘’Testimonios de la Guerra Grande. Muerte del Mariscal López. Tomo I’’, Editorial Servilibro. Asuncion, Paraguay, 2007. p. 104.〕 she returned to Paris to live with her mother in the Strafford household.〔Bareiro. Tomo I. p. 104.〕 Courtesy of a few fortuitous introductions, she later entered the elite circle surrounding Princess Mathilde Bonaparte and quickly set herself up as a courtesan.〔Margaret Nichols"The World's Wickedest Women", p. 34〕
She was described as possessing a Junoesque figure, golden blonde hair and a provocative smile. It was perhaps those very qualities that appealed to a visiting South American a year after her return to France. It was 1854 when Eliza Lynch met Francisco Solano López, son of Carlos Antonio López, president of Paraguay, at that time one of the wealthiest small southern nations in the continental Americas. The young General López, in training with the Napoleonic army, kept his country's interests above all as fundamental reasons for his European journey. However, Lynch and López would begin a relationship which led her to return with him during that same year to Paraguay.〔Bareiro. Tomo I. p. 104〕
