Lady Hester Pulter (née Ley) (1605-1678) was a seventeenth-century writer, whose manuscript was rediscovered in 1996 in the Brotherton Library, University of Leeds. == Life ==
Lady Hester Pulter was born in Dublin in 1605.〔Alice Eardley, 'Lady Hester Pulter's Book of "Emblemes"' (Unpublished PhD Thesis, University of Warwick, 2008), p. 32〕 She was the daughter of James Ley, who became the first Earl of Marlborough in 1626.〔ODNB〕 At the time of her birth her father was serving as Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. Pulter's mother was Ley's first wife, Mary (née Pettie or Petty). Prior to 1623 and most probably in either 1618 or 1619, Hester married Arthur Pulter of Broadfield in Hertfordshire.〔Eardley (2008), 40〕 The Pulters' had fifteen children (seven sons and eight daughters), only two of whom outlived their mother. During the English Civil Wars, the Pulters apparently withdrew from public life. Hester Pulter died in 1678 but Arthur went on to live a further eleven years. Only one grandchild, James Forester (1660–1696), survived him and he went on to become the sole heir to the family estate.
