Childhood
Emma was born at Fallbrooke House, the family seat near Andover, Hampshire, in May 1790. Her childhood was a happy one; she was close to both her brothers but especially to John, the closest to her in age. Things changed in 1802, when Emma was twelve: their uncle bought John his Colours and he joined the Army as an Ensign in the 45th Regiment of Foot. With the loss of her brother to the Army, and her growing maturity, it was time for Emma to settle down and begin the business of acquiring enough accomplishments and polish that she could enter Society without drawing down the disapproval of the Ton.
