A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Dubois, Dorothea
DUBOIS, DOROTHEA,
Daughter of Annesley, Earl of Anglesea, by Anne Sympson, married a musician, and endeavoured, by her writings, to reclaim her rights from her father, who had basely denied his marriage with her mother, and disowned her as his child. She wrote the "Divorce," a musical entertainment, and "Theodora," a novel, in which she delineates her own history. She died in Dublin, in 1774.
