    • --- "The Clairmont Family Letters, 1839-1889, Vol. 1, by Sharon Joffe, 2016:
      The Ramsbottom family features fairly significantly in the Clairmont family's letters. Ada Ramsbottom and her sister, Emily Ramsbottom Wilbraham, were Claire's friends. Their parents were James and Emma Ramsbottom. On 7 May 1845, Claire sent Mary Shelley a letter of introduction to Ada whom she called a "charming girl," and very "domestic" (CC II: 429-30). On 23 June 1845, Mary Shelley responded to Claire, informing her that she had invited both sisters to a party to celbrate the Regatta in Putney. Claire wrote back, confirming that Ada greatly admired Mary Shelley. On 28 June 1845, Mary Shelley recorded in a letter that Ada and her sister had attended her party and she noted her satisfaction with Mrs. Wilbraham's looks. Mrs. Wilbraham apparently wore "rouge" (LMWS III: 189). Mary Shelley did not, however, mention Ada, an omission on which Claire remarked in her letter of 4 July 1845. Mary Shelley responded on 7-10 July 1845, praising Mrs. Wilbraham's complexion and noting that she had not said much to Ada, but that she had found Ada to be a pleasant young woman (LMWS III: 194). By October 1845, Mary Shelley was writing to Claire about prospective wives for Percy Florence and she mentioned Ada Ramsbottom (LMWS III: 243).
