Early life and family background
[edit]Serjeantson was born on 7 April 1874 at 49 Charlwood Street, Belgravia, the London home of her parents Peter Bell Serjeantson and Katherine, née Evans.[1][2] Her father was the fourth son of Peter Serjeantson, of Knotty Ash, Liverpool, Lancashire, and Elizabeth, née Jordan.[2] Her mother was the second daughter of John Evans and Anne, née Owens, of Llangollen, Denbighshire, Wales. They had married on 26 May 1870 at St David's church on Brownlow Hill, Liverpool.[3] In the 1820s, Serjeantson's paternal grandfather, Peter, was a partner in the general brokerage firm Ansdell and Serjeantson, Liverpool. In 1830, he entered into partnership with Thomas Steuart Gladstone, the cousin of the future prime minister William Ewart Gladstone, and established the cotton trading firm of Gladstone and Serjeantson.[4]: 225–226 He was later elected president of the Liverpool Cotton Broker's Association.[5]: 504 In 1861, Gladstone retired,[4]: 227 and the firm was managed by Serjeantson's uncle, William Francis Serjeantson.[5]: 505
Serjeantson's father was educated at Rugby School where he was contemporary of Henry Sidgwick, the English philosopher and economist.[6] He was an early player of the game of rugby football after being invited by Frank Albert Mather, also a contemporary at Rugby,[6][a] to play in a rugby match that took place at Edge Hill in Liverpool on 19 December 1857.[5]: 501–502 He supposedly took the "the most active part in the trial" and it has been reported that Liverpool Football Club Rugby Union was formed immediately after the game.[5]: 502–504 He and his brother, William Francis, were important in the formation and establishment of the club, with William becoming captain of the club from 1862 to 1863 and president from 1870 to 1876.[5]: 504–505 Shortly after Serjeantson's birth, the family immigrated to the United States of America, where her father farmed land at East Chain Lake in Martin County, Minnesota.[7] He died at the farm from typhoid fever on 17 September 1875.[8] Despite his early death, her mother was supported financially by a life insurance policy from Scottish Equitable Life Assurance Society, that paid out £1,500 on his death (equivalent to £178,000 in 2023).[9]: 117
Serjeantson's only brother,[9]: 120 Peter, was born in the folllowing year on 18 May 1876 at 85 Claverton Street, Pimlico, London,[10] but he died three hours after birth, and was buried two days later at Brompton Cemetery.[11] On 20 July 1878, her mother remarried Philip Richard Morris ARA, the English artist, at St George's in Hanover Square, Westminster.[12] They had two sons and three daughters, and subsequently, Serjeantson and her half-siblings would often become the subject of Morris's paintings.[13]: 190 Morris painted her when she was aged thirteen, and the painting, a study in black and white, was shown from May 1895 in the Fair Children exhibition at the Grafton Galleries, Mayfair, London.[14]: 243 The painting was described by one art critic as "the face is very beautiful, and stands out boldly, the attitude is natural and graceful."[15] In June of the same year, another painting of her by Morris was shown at the Royal Academy of Arts in Piccadilly, London.[16]: 513 Paintings of her mother and grandmother, Anne, were also shown at the Royal Academy in 1882 and 1887 respectively.[17]: 301
Serjeantson's mother died on 10 September 1886 at St Ann's Square, Barmouth, Gwynedd, northwestern Wales, near the Cors-y-Gedol hotel, the then home of Serjeantson's grandmother.[18] Her grandmother had remarried John Robert Davies, the owner of the Cors-y-Gedol hotel,[19] on 7 December 1952 at Llangollen parish church, Denbighshire.[20] Her grandmother and John Robert were both trustees of Serjeantson's mother's estate.[9]: 117, 120 Serjeantson married George Arthur Power on 28 March 1896 at St Marylebone Parish Church, London.[21] He was a comedy actor known by the stage name Littledale Power and was the son of Harold Littledale Power and Ethel Lavenu, and the elder brother of Tyrone Power Sr.[22]: 305 They had one daughter, Nancy Tyrone, born on 13 February 1897 at their home, 6 Hyde Park Mansions, Marylebone Road, London.[23] Under the terms of their marriage settlement, Serjeantson was paid £100 a year (equivalent to £13,000 in 2023) as long as Nancy remained in education.[9]: 124
Her half-sister, Ida Morris, was also an actress until she married the English actor Norman Tharp. https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0001860/19021008/009/0006

Death
[edit]Serjeantson died on 16 February 1918 West 94th Street, in Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York City. The funeral service was held on 24 February 1918 at the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Church at Broadway and 66th Street,[24] followed by cremation.[25] At the time of Serjeantson's death, her daughter, Nancy Tyrone, was appearing in A Tailor-Made Man at the Cohan and Harris Theatre in the Theater District of Midtown Manhattan.[26] Described as a "beautiful English actress",[27] she had arrived in New York on 19 October 1916 to fill a role on the Broadway stage, after selling £1,250 (equivalent to £107,000 in 2023)[28] worth of silk flags in London for the Red Cross.[29]
(aged 43) at her home, 50Serjeantson's husband sailed to New York to "bring home my child whose mother has just died."[30][b] Nevertheless, Nancy remained in America, and later that year, she married Cosmo Kyrle Bellew, an Anglo-American stage and film actor, on 11 October 1918 in Cook County, Illinois. At the time of their marriage, Bellew, aged 36, was considerably older than Nancy,[31] and he was also out of work,[32] as theatres across the United States, apart from those on Broadway, had closed to wait out the 1918 flu pandemic.[33] The marriage did not last, and by 1923,[34] she had returned to England where she married Joseph Leonard Henry, a pilot in the Royal Air Force.[35]
After their marriage, they lived at Corner Cottage on the then newly built Limes Estate in Felbridge, Surrey.[36] Joseph died on (aged 37) at Redhill Hospital, Redhill, Surrey, as the result of a motorcycle accident.[35] They had one son, David Hubert Tyrone,[37] who went on to become a flying officer in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve Training Branch.[38] After he relinquished his commission, he was appointed a director of Kent-Kraft (Electrical) Limited, a manufacturer and dealer of electrical equipment, radios, and televisions.[39] Nancy died after a long illness on 10 November 1955 (aged 58) at St Agnes Nursing Home, East Grinstead, Sussex,[40] and the funeral service was held on 14 November 1955 at Redstone Cemetery, Redhill.[41]
