Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly
Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly, OBE, (née Llewellyn) (13 November 1913 – 11 February 2001), was the British author of ''To War With Whitaker: The Wartime Diaries of the Countess of Ranfurly, 1939–1945''. ==Childhood== Hermione Llewellyn was born in Postlip, Gloucestershire into a wealthy family of Welsh origin. She had a handsome older brother, Griffith ''Owen'' (1912–1933), and two beautiful sisters, Cynthia (born 1916) and Daphne (born 1922); "I started life as a disappointment — because I wasn't a boy", she recalled. "I continued being a disappointment — because I was ugly. Instead of minding, I determined to ride better, run faster, be funnier and give more generous presents than the rest of the family."〔 Their father, Griffith Robert Poyntz Llewellyn, was dashing, popular and extravagant; his lack of caution was to have disastrous consequences, and he lost the family fortune on horses and houses when Hermione was thirteen.〔〔 "We became poor very quickly", she reported. Their mother Emily ''Constance'' (née Elwes) was beautiful and loving, but during Hermione's childhood became mentally ill and was diagnosed with manic-depression. The family accompanied her to Switzerland for treatment. There was further family tragedy with Owen's death in an air crash.〔 She completed her education at Southover Manor School, in Sussex.〔Hermione Ranfurly, ''The Ugly One: the childhood memoirs of Hermione, Countess of Ranfurly, 1913-1939 (1998), p. 118〕
