Elizabeth Ogborne

Elizabeth Ogborne (1763/4 – 22 December 1853) was a British antiquary who published an unfinished county history of Essex.

They lived at 58 Great Portland Street in London, where they were landlords to Euphemia Boswell.

[1] The son, John, qualified as a surgeon, but died in his late teens in 1813; and the couple then took up local history.

Elizabeth wrote the first part of a History of Essex, her husband supplying engravings.

[2] The book received good reviews in the Gentleman's Magazine,[3][4] and Ogborne was commended for her learning and precision.
