Family
Parents & Siblings
Born to the 3rd Marquess of Beningborough, Nicholas Landon, and his wife, Augusta Landon, Edmond was the first of two living children that would come from his parents union. In 1766, his younger sister, Celia Powell (nee Landon), was born. Following Celia's birth, there would be three more siblings, none of whom would survive their first birthday. Following the death of his younger brother Arthur in 1770, Edmond's parents became estranged from each other, though his mother spent time with him and Celia. Nicholas Landon died from a heart attack in 1784, leaving the title of Marquess to Edmond.
Spouse
Edmond is married to Marion Landon, the daughter of the impoverished Baron of Roth. While the Burstow family had been facing a large amount of scandal at the time of Marion's debut in 1787, the marriage was arranged with the help of Augusta's meddling. Having heard of the gossip surrounding Marion's family, and after meeting the girl for herself, she was quite impressed with Marion's tenacity. Deciding to push Edmond and Marion together, Augusta was relieved to discover that the two had fallen in love. By the end of the Season of 1787, Edmond had proposed to Marion.
Family
Edmond and Marion have a large and vibrant family, who include:
