Old Photograph Joanna Baillie Memorial Bothwell Glasgow Scotland

Old photograph of the Joanna Baillie memorial in the grounds of the collegiate church in Bothwell, Glasgow, Scotland. Joanna Baillie was a Scottish poet and dramatist and was well known during her lifetime. Her father was minister of the parish and she was born in the Manse in 1762. Her mother was a sister of the great physicians and anatomists William and John Hunter. William Hunter of Windmill Street, London, died in 1783, leaving Matthew Baillie his house and private museum collection, which is now the University of Glasgow's Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery. The Ballies were an old Scottish family and claimed Sir William Wallace amongst their ancestors. As a young child, Joanna lived with her family in Bothwell until her father was appointed to the collegiate church and the family moved to Hamilton. She was a close friend of Sir Walter Scott and when she lived in London she was very much a part of the literary set and counted the Wordsworths amongst her friends. She died in 1851 at the age of 89.
