Corisande Armandine Sophie Leonice Helene Bennet (de Gramont) (5 October 1782 – 23 January 1865) was a Countess of Tankerville and socialite born to the family of Gramont.[1]
Early Life
[edit]Corisande de Gramont was the eldest and first-born child of Antoine-Louis, 1st Duc de Gramont et Guiche, and his wife Aglaé de Polignac.[2]
As the grand-daughter of Yolande de Polastron, the favourite and confidante of Marie Antoinette, Corisande's family were given benefits and were regarded as 'close relatives' to the Queen. In 1789, following the outbreak of the French Revolution, Corisande and her family were forced to flee due to her maternal grandmother's relations with France. Eventually, the family resided in Edinburgh, Scotland.
On 30 March 1803, Corisande's mother and her 3 sibings suffered severe burns from a housefire; her mother succumbed to her injuries and died.[2] After the death of her mother, Corisande relocated to England and was brought up in the household of her grandmother's friend, Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire.[2]
Marriage
[edit]
On July 28, 1806, Corisande married Charles Bennet, 5th Earl of Tankerville and was titled Countess consort of Tankerville.[3] The marriage took place at the Devonshire House. They had two children; Charles Bennet, 5th Earl of Tankerville, (1776–1859), and Lady Corisande Bennet (1807–1876).[4]
Death
[edit]Following the death of her husband on June 25, 1859 Corisande was given the title of Dowager Countess of Tankerville. Corisande died in London on January 23, 1865.[5][6] Corisande outlived her sister, Aglaé de Gramont by 23 years and her younger brother, Héraclius de Gramont, 9th Duke of Gramont by a decade, despite being the eldest of the three. She was buried in the Trinity Centre, St Philip and St Jacob, Bristol in the area formerly known as the Holy Trinity Church.
