A Blundell ancestor founded the Blue Coat School. She is Sarah Blundell and in her portrait still possessed by the family she looks as if she steps out of the pages of a Jane Austen novel. She has married Rev Thomas McCalmont of Tarrant Crawford 17 June 1833. They were living at the Villa Medici in Fiesole when she died in childbirth, which is where later Holman Hunt will sculpt the tomb for his wife, B9/ FANNY WAUGH HUNT, who likewise died following childbirth (they didn't know to wash their hands), and which the young Iris Origo visited. Sarah McCalmont's clerical husband brings their orphan babe home to England where he is baptised 'Hugh Barklie Blundell McCalmont' in Liverpool by his relative, Rev William Blundell, whom De Quincy used to hear preach: http://dequinceyineverton.blogspot.it/2011/02/reverend-william-blundell.html. It is suggested a study be made of Florence Ashley Rawlins' accomplished Arts and Crats carving
