Elizabeth Cobbold
Elizabeth Cobbold or Carolina Petty Pasty born Elizabeth Knipe (1765–1824) was a British writer and poet.
==Life==
Cobbold was born Elizabeth Knipe in London in 1765〔 and baptised in the now lost church of St Olave Silver Street before living in Manchester.〔(Elizabeth Cobbold ), Spenserians, retrieved 15 January 2015〕 Her first marriage was to William Clarke who worked for the customs at Ipswich. William was older than her and disabled and he died after less than a year. By this time she had published her first novel The Sword, or Father Bertrand's History of his own Times''〔 which was influenced by her friend Clara Reeve.〔 The following year after becoming a widow she married the Ipswich brewer John Cobbold and she became the stepmother of fifteen children as well as, in time, giving birth to an additional seven.〔 In 1814 they moved to a house at Holywells Park in Ipswich from their previous house, ''The Cliff''.
Despite this number of children she published under the pseudonym of ''Carolina Petty Pasty'' a poetical piece which included a portrait which was her work too. In 1803 she served as editor to a volume of poems by Ann Candler. She continued to do charitable work and in 1812 she started a clothing society for small children and in 1820 a charitable bazaar.〔
From 1806 Cobbold was known for Valentine Day cards which had verses written by herself and she published these in 1813 and 1814. The verses were attached to cleverly cut paper and it has been said that the skill of the cutting exceeded the quality of the poetry.
