Portrait of Margaret Bryan from Herschel Museum-m

Caption

An engraving in the frontispiece to Bryan’s astronomy book depicted her with her daughters, although their names were not disclosed. By combing through a relative’s will, Girolami was able to find their names at last – Ann Marian and Maria.
