#otd 1861 Patrick Bronte, the last surving Bronte, died aged 84. His son in law Arthur, Charlotte Bronte's widower, was by his side. Patrick outlived his wife and all 6 children; a keen poet and firm believer in education for all, his influence on the Bronte sisters was huge.

#otd 1849 Anne Bronte, who had collapsed outside her lodging earlier in the day, drives a donkey drawn cart across Scarborough sands; she insisted on being alone - this is where Agnes & Weston were reunited in Agnes Grey. Donkey rides are still available on the same beach today

nasce Charlotte Bronte, 1816
Pericolo, solitudine, futuro incerto non sono mali opprimenti finché il corpo è sano, le facoltà valide; finché la libertà ci presta le sue ali e la speranza ci guida con la sua stella.

#otd 1817 Ellen Nussey was born. She became the lifelong friend of Charlotte Bronte, and it's thanks to her preservation of a large collection of Charlotte's letters that we know so much about the Brontes. A loyal and loving friend to the very end - Happy 204th Birthday Ellen!

A great day for birthdays! Jane Austen is 245 today & Ludwig van Beethoven is 250 today! Emily Bronte, a brilliant pianist, was a huge fan of Beethoven's work; Charlotte Bronte wasn't keen on Austen's writing at first but came to admire it.
#otd 1810 a daughter Elizabeth was born in Chelsea to William and Elizabeth Stevenson (nee Holland). Her mother died when she was one & she was brought up by an aunt. She became famous as Elizabeth Gaskell, biographer & great friend of Charlotte Bronte, & a brilliant novelist.
