Without looking anything up, I imagine the daughter of impoverished noble, a cavalry-man in the employ of the British East India Company, born in a bungalow in the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and thereafter dead of consumption. Possibly by a tiger. With very little in between. She wrote two books of poetry and an atrocious translation of Kalidasa.

A Virginian, eh? Well, I got her gender right, at least. ;_;
