Timeline

1849

Born in Manchester, England on November 24 1849, Frances Eliza Hodgson was the eldest daughter in a family of two boys and three girls. After her father's death when she was three years old, the Hodgsdons experienced severe financial difficulties. As a young girl, she would scrawl little stories on sheets of old notebooks, as she was unable to afford proper writing materials.

1859

Second husband, Stephen Townsend (1859-1914) was also, according to the NY Times, a surgeon, lecturer and author, as well as appearing on the stage as William Dennis.

1865

In 1865 the family moved to Tennessee where they lived in a log cabin and the teenage Frances set up a little school. She began submitting stories to women's magazines and in a time when most women did not have careers, Frances Eliza Hodgsdon was a literary success.

1873

In 1873 she married Dr.

1874

Swan Burnett and they had two sons -- Lionel, born 1874, and Vivian, born 1876 -- but the marriage was not a happy one. Her younger son, Vivian, clamoured for something for little boys to read, so Frances wrote "Little Lord Fauntleroy" and modeled the main character after him.

1890

In 1890 tragedy struck when her eldest son, Lionel, died of influenza.

1898

Frances and Swan separated and finally divorced in 1898, and she went on to remarry Stephen Townshend.

1901

Frances moved to Long Island, New York in 1901 and there began to write her two most famous stories -- "A Little Princess" and "The Secret Garden", inspired by her poor childhood and her love for gardening. She began rather eccentric in her old age, but delighted in her grandchildren.
