She met the Viscount Brenchley when she was 18. He came to the island in 1805 to see to business on his failing tobacco plantation after his father died. He was struck by Mireille’s elegant countenance and address when he saw her at a Ball that he gave to meet his neighbors. After inquiring into her fathers business and taking tally of her possible fortune he thought it might not be a bad thing to make her better acquaintance. He found her even more to his liking than he had thought possible. He made her an offer knowing that his family would turn a blind eye to her complexion on account of her extremely large settlement and even larger expected inheritance would be filling their somewhat dwindling coffers. After their marriage they intended to return to England, but the births of their children prevented them. After Lord Trevethyn died in a riding accident in 1810 Mireille decided that it would be best to come to London for her son now the Lord Trevethyn to be raised nearer to his father’s family and to receive an education suitable to a Viscount. | She met the Viscount Brenchley when she was 18.

Born as the eldest child of a Baronet and a free black milliner in the West Indies, Mireille lived an extremely comfortable childhood. She and her siblings were given the best of everything that her father could procure for them at the distance they were from society. He was grateful to at last be a father. Mireille had an excellent governess from England who was able to teach pianoforte, harp, singing, painting and drawing. Her mother taught her French from birth as that was her first language. She was had her come-out into society when she was 17.
She met the Viscount Brenchley when she was 18. He came to the island in 1805 to see to business on his failing tobacco plantation after his father died. He was struck by Mireille’s elegant countenance and address when he saw her at a Ball that he gave to meet his neighbors. After inquiring into her fathers business and taking tally of her possible fortune he thought it might not be a bad thing to make her better acquaintance. He found her even more to his liking than he had thought possible. He made her an offer knowing that his family would turn a blind eye to her complexion on account of her extremely large settlement and even larger expected inheritance would be filling their somewhat dwindling coffers. After their marriage they intended to return to England, but the births of their children prevented them.
