Caroline Louisa Cavendish-Bentinck (née Burnaby; died 6 July 1918) was the maternal grandmother of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and the great-grandmother of Elizabeth II.[1]
She was born in Leicester, the daughter of Edwyn Burnaby of Baggrave Hall and his wife Anne Caroline Salisbury.[2] She was baptised on 5 December 1832 at Hungarton, Leicestershire.[3] She was a sister of Edwyn Sherard Burnaby and a first cousin of Frederick Gustavus Burnaby.
Marriages
She married the Reverend Charles Cavendish-Bentinck, as his second wife, on 13 December 1859.[4] Together they had three children:
- Cecilia Nina Cavendish-Bentinck (1862–1938); married Claude Bowes-Lyon, 14th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. They were parents to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother (1900–2002) and thus maternal grandparents of Queen Elizabeth II.
- Ann Violet Cavendish-Bentinck (1864–1932).
- Hyacinth Cavendish-Bentinck (1864–1916); married Augustus Edward Jessop.
After her first husband's death in 1865, she married Harry Warren Scott, the son of Sir William Scott, 6th Baronet, of Ancrum, on 30 September 1870.[4] He died on 23 August 1889 at Forbes House, Ham, Surrey.[5] She died aged 85, twice widowed, on 6 July 1918 at Dawlish, Devon.[6]
