Agmondisham Vesey (died 1785)

[1] The couple had no children together, and Agmondesham was continuously unfaithful to Elizabeth, although she maintained the façade of a happy marriage.

Elizabeth nursed her husband through attacks of epilepsy, but depended for her support upon a circle of female friends.

[1] The couple split their time between London, England and Lucan in Ireland, but eventually settled mostly in London at houses in Clarges Street and Bolton Row, Mayfair, where Elizabeth hosted her intellectual salon parties.

Agmondesham Vesey died on 3 June 1785, leaving his wife and her companion, Miss Handcock, facing relative poverty, Agmondesham having left them nothing in his will despite leaving £1000 to his mistress.

[1] Vesey was a noted amateur architect and contributed significantly towards the design and construction of Lucan House in 1775.
