| Description |
Elizabeth Grant Bankson was born in Philadelphia in 1775 and died in Baltimore on June 5, 1851. She was the daughter of Jacob Bankson (1752 - December 10, 1795), a Philadelphia lawyer, and his wife, Elizabeth Bedford (1756 - January 29, 1821), daughter of Gunning Bedford (1720-1802) of Cecil County, Maryland and Philadelphia. Her first husband was Carl Heinrich Wilmans (1769 - February 22, 1798), a native of Bremen, Germany, by whom she had a son, Carl Herman Wilmans (1797-1833). (e and h) Carl Heinrich Wilmans became a prosperous Baltimore merchant and was later lost at sea. In 1801, she married James Beatty (August 25, 1771 - October 5, 1851), also a Baltimore merchant, who, at the time of his death in 1851 (?), owned the Bellona Gunpowder Factory. The Beattys had seven children: Susan, James, John, Elizabeth (later Mrs. Hugh Young Purviance), Sarah, George, and Mary. (e) There is much confusion as to the identity of the Bankson family portraits. |
