Her Father's Name By Florence Marryat Marryat was born in Brighton, Sussex, in 1833, daughter of author and naval Captain Frederick Marryat and his wife, Catherine (nee Shairp). Her parents separated when Marryat was young; her childhood was divided between her parents' residences, where she was privately educated. Shortly before her 21st birthday, she wed Thomas Ross Church, an officer in the Madras staff corps of the British Army in India; they spent the first seven years of their married life travelling India extensively before she returned to England in 1860 without her husband, who apparently visited only occasionally. She had eight children with Church, three of them while in India. By the mid-1870s Marryat was an internationally successful author and was living together with her future husband, Colonel Francis Lean of the Royal Marine Light Infantry. Church eventually sued for divorce in 1878, citing his wife's adultery as the grounds. Marryat and her husband divorced in 1879; later that year, she wed Colonel Lean, but they divorced only a year later, in 1880.
