She was engaged to William Springal Levett, the son of an Aldeburgh physician and a friend of the poet George Crabbe, but Levett died in 1774 before the couple could marry. In 1788 she married Augustus Towle Lewis, a surgeon with a criminal past of which she may have been unaware. The couple lived in Philadelphia for a year, and then returned to England, where they finally settled in Penkridge, Staffordshire, where she died in 1827.[1]
