[edit] List of women treated in George Ballard's Memoirs of British Ladies (1752)

Ballard provided memoirs for over 60 women, presenting them in chrologically order.This list is a (perhaps misguided) effort at an alphabetical order. The title given by Ballard appears in single quotation marks; other name variants and dates are provided by cross-checking with ODNB and WBIS Online. Where there is as yet no Wikipedia entry. I often have no idea which name is best to use.
