The colorful duchess is said to have been the basis for William Thackeray's character of Beatrice in Esmond and of the Baroness Bernstein in The Virginians and was also ridiculed in a play that she tried to legally suppress The Capuchin. Prone to romantic entanglements and scandals she had many lovers and it is said that George II was one of many to be swayed by her charms. When she determined to marry the Duke of Kingston Elizabeth feared the scandal of divorce from her first husband Augustus Hervey later Earl of Bristol who wanted a divorce so she instituted a suit of jactitation against him. His negative response ignored she took an oath that she was unmarried and the court so declared her. She married the Duke of Kingston in 1769 and he died in 1770 and left her a substantial estate on the condition that she remain a widow. The duke's nephew Mr. Evelyn Meadow brought suit against her for bigamy shortly after the duke's death while she was traveling in Italy. She returned to England to stand trial. Found guilty she would have been "burned on the hand" but she claimed the privilege of her peerage which served to exempt her from corporal punishment. She continued a life of travel and adventure until her sudden death in Paris in 1788. Dictionary of National Biography IX:730. Sowerby Catalogue of the Library of Thomas Jefferson 1957.
