Notes:

Lady Catherine Henrietta Dicken was a wealthy young woman born in India during the British Raj. Catherine lived in perpetual luxury and wealth: she met her husband Henry Ulick Brown in India where they spent twenty extravagant years living together. She did not move to Westport House or become the 5th Marchioness of Sligo until she was 66 years of age: her husband inherited the title and the estate in 1903. Catherine was adored by the people of Westport due to her kindness and hospitality. She is by far the most exotic of the three 'Ladies of Sligo'.
