Mary and Percy Shelley, married at London.
Fierce public hostility toward the couple drove
them to Italy. They were happy in Italy, but their
two young children Clara Everina and William were not.
Clara and Percy died, leaving Mary penniless
with a two year old son. She died in London
from a brain tumor at age of 53. Mary
Wollstonecraft Shelley was buried between her
mother and father in St. Peter’s Churchyard,
Bournemouth. She died in 1851 .
