Her father's Will left her more money

In his will, her father, David Murray, 2nd Earl of Mansfield, bequeathed her an additional £1,000 for each of her children. He stipulated that the money should be invested so that it would accumulate until her children reached adulthood. Lady Elizabeth had six children by the time of his death in 1796.

After investing the additional £6,000 she received in 1796, by 1818 her children would have had roughly £16,000 to split (on top their mother's large inheritance of roughly £40,000, which would also be split amongst her younger children who didn't inherit) Wentwort12 (talk) 20:48, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
