  • Notes 
    • Mary died 5 months and 4 days following the suicide of Elizabeth Sibert inside their home on 19 May 1788. I wonder if that event affected Mary so deeply that her own health failed. Who was Elizabeth Sibert, where was she from, and what was her relationship to the Collard family - a relative, a lodger, a servant?
