"Mrs Bennet (as she is spelt by Lewes) is also mentioned in Vol 3 of his Memoirs p 90 and Mrs Esten p 83.

In 1804 Richard Westall exhibited portraits of Miss Bennett (363) and Mrs Esten (374) suggesting that Anna Maria had another daughter. Westall is mentioned as being betrothed to a Miss Bennett (Farington Diaries 3/4 November 1804) but the marriage does not take place. Westall had a pupil William James Bennett who could be another member of the family. 'A Curious Genealogical Medley' by James F. Fuller (1913) indicates the links between the Bennetts and the Hamilton family. Mrs Esten is said to have had a daughter whose father was the 8th Duke of Hamilton. Sir William Hamilton was related to the 8th duke and his wife Emma was Nelson's sweetheart. Paintings by Westall of incidents in the life of Nelson were exhibited at the RA in 1807. A portrait of Miss Hamilton was exhibited at the RA in 1804 (377) and the original is now at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich. In the publication 'Anna or Memoirs of a Welch (sic) Heiress', published in Dublin in 1804 the author Agnes Maria Bennett (also called Anna) dedicates the book to Princess Charlotte Matilda, Princess Royal of England. The Dedication ends: 'Permit an orphan, Madam, to find an asylum at your feet; she is young, virtuous and friendless: the vicissitudes of her fortune are many of them taken from real life'." Not sure what to do with this. The book it refers to is on on-line but no mention of Westall in volume 3 Victuallers (talk) 08:30, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
