Emily Charlotte Talbot

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emily Charlotte Talbot (August 1, 1840 – 21 September 1918) was an heiress and industrialist of South Wales, the daughter of Christopher Rice Mansel Talbot.

She was born in Belgrave Square, the centrepiece of Belgravia in London.

Following the death of her brother, Emily, known locally as "Miss Talbot" throughout her life, inherited her father's fortune. She was largely responsible for creating a port and railway system to attract business to Port Talbot. She made her home at Margam Castle.
