Isabella Harriet Malcolm

Isabella Harriet Wingfield Stratford, joined her sister, Frances, in a double wedding on 31 July 1832 at "Mary la Bonne", her husband being John Malcolm, Deputy Lieutenant, JP for Kent and Argyllshire, 14th Earl of Poltalloch, Argyll, and youngest son of Neill Malcolm, 13th Earl of Poltalloch and his wife, Harriet Mary. She died on 30 September 1858. The Earl lived on until 30 May 1893, when he was aged 87. John Malcolm was born on 5 September 1805. He built up a noted art collection, which is now in the British Museum. This he began mainly after Isabella's death and he eventually acquired close to a thousand drawings and engravings, among them being works by such old masters as Michelangelo, Rembrandt van Rijn and Titian. With the death of their eldest son, John Wingfield Malcolm (16 April 1833-6 March 1902), the peerage became extinct.
