Hersey, Marchioness of Linlithgow : ウィキペディア英語版
Hersey Hope, Marchioness of Linlithgow
Hersey Alice Hope, Marchioness of Linlithgow (née Eveleigh-de Moleyns; 31 March 18673 April 1937)〔 was a British aristocrat, who was the wife of John Hope, 1st Marquess of Linlithgow, who, as the 7th Earl of Hopetoun, was the first Governor-General of Australia 1901-1902.
==Biography==
Hersey Alice Mullins was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, the third daughter and sixth child of nine children of Dayrolles Blakeney Mullins and Harriet Elizabeth Frances, née Wauchope, of Niddrie Marischal.〔(The Peerage )〕 On 18 January 1868 her father succeeded to the titles of 4th Baronet Mullins and 4th Baron Ventry.〔 On 3 November 1874, when she was seven, the family surname was legally changed to Eveleigh-de Moleyns by Royal Licence.〔(The Peerage )〕
Her family had lived in County Kerry in Ireland since the 17th century, and her father was Deputy Lieutenant there.〔 She grew up at Burnham House, County Kerry (now an Irish-speaking girls' secondary school known as ''Coláiste Ide'') as well as at Ennismore Gardens, Knightsbridge, London. Their neighbours in London were the 6th Earl of Hopetoun and his family. In 1873 the 6th Earl died and was succeeded by his son John Adrian Louis Hope as the 7th Earl. On 18 October 1886, at age 19, at All Saints' Church, Ennismore Gardens, she married the 7th Earl of Hopetoun.
Their son Victor (known as "Hopie"), was born on 24 September 1887 (he later succeeded his father as 2nd Marquess of Linlithgow). A daughter Mary Dorothea was also born (her date of birth is not known). In 1889, her husband was appointed Governor of Victoria, and they arrived in Melbourne on 28 November. Lord Hopetoun was popular with Victorians, but Lady Hopetoun, then aged 22, had no experience of public life, was painfully shy, and was criticised for her reserved and haughty manner.〔(Brian Carroll, Australia's Governors-General )〕 She had been ill since the birth of her son and at the end of 1890 she returned to England for medical advice. She returned in May 1891, and soon became pregnant again. Their second son, Lord Charles (Melbourne) Hope, was born on 20 February 1892.
The torpedo gunboat HMVS ''Countess of Hopetoun'' was named after her in 1890. It was incorporated into the Royal Australian Navy in 1911 as HMAS ''Countess of Hopetoun'' and was used until 1924. It was later wrecked in the vicinity of Swan Island in Port Phillip.〔(Blue Wedges )〕 In 1902 a steam launch was named after her, the ''Lady Hopetoun''; it is still operational, as part of the Sydney Heritage Fleet.〔(''Lady Hopetoun'' 1902 ) Retrieved 2011-09-03.〕
Lady Hopetoun's private character was less formal than her public one. She was a keen angler, an expert horsewoman (once breaking her nose in a riding accident),〔(The Australian Public Intellectual Network )〕 and an enthusiastic hunter. She was also a crack shot, even though shooting was then considered an unusual activity for a woman, and disapproved of by Queen Victoria. She was also a photographer and an artist in cartoons, caricatures and watercolours.〔(Dictionary of Australian Artists Online )〕
The Hopetouns left Australia in March 1895 when his term as Governor of Victoria ended. Another daughter, Lady Jacqueline Hope, was born on 16 June 1896, but she survived only five days.〔 They returned in 1900 when Lord Hopetoun was appointed the first Governor-General of Australia. They arrived in Sydney on 15 December 1900. Their voyage to Australia on this occasion was marred by her contracting malaria during a stopover in India, where her husband also contracted typhoid fever.〔(Australian Dictionary of Biography )〕 The festivities for the inauguration of the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901 included a song "Welcome to the Earl and Countess of Hopetoun", with words by Joan Torrance and music by W. R. Furlong, which was dedicated to her husband.〔(Music Australia )〕
On 3 September 1901, at the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne, the Countess of Hopetoun announced the names of the winners of a competition to design the Australian Flag, and unfurled the new flag for the first time.〔(ANFA )〕〔(Under the Southern Cross )〕
Lord Hopetoun resigned the governor-generalship in May 1902. They left Australia (from Brisbane) on 17 July, and on 27 October (while still formally occupying the position of Governor-General)〔(Dictionary of National Biography )〕 he was created the 1st Marquess of Linlithgow, and she became the Marchioness of Linlithgow.
The Marquess died suddenly in France in 1908. Their elder son Victor succeeded his father as the 2nd Marquess, and later became the Viceroy of India 1936-43, after having declined the governorship of Madras and the governor-generalship of Australia.〔
The Dowager Marchioness of Linlithgow died on 3 April 1937, three days after turning 70.
