G. Wells, Violet Bonham Carter, Henry Yorke, Hugo Charteris, Osbert Sitwell, L. P. Jacks, Joan Webster-Young, Sybell Fulford , Roger Fulford, Anne Fleming and others Lady Mary was the adopted daughter of Percy Scawen Wyndham. Her mother was Mary Constance Charteris Wyndham and her biological father Wilfrid Scawen Blunt. Wyndham and her siblings and their spouses were members of The Souls, an elite English social group. She and her two sisters were the subjects of John Singer Sargent's 1899 painting The Wyndham Sisters.Mary was first married to Algernon (Tom) Strickland, who died in 1938, her second husband was Major John (Jack) Lyon, whom she married in 1943. Her older sister was the author and society hostess Lady Cynthia Asquith, married to Herbert Asquith, younger son of the Liberal Prime Minister Herbert Henry Asquith, who was Prime Minister at the outbreak of the First World War. Mary lost both her brothers during the war in quick succession, Yvo Alan Charteris in October 1915 and Hugo Francis Charteris (Lord Elcho) in April 1916. She resided both at Stanway House (her family home) and Apperley Court (family home of the Strickland's).Her fascinating diaries span the early years of a young Mary Strickland, documenting the outbreak of the First World War and its aftermath, nursing duties, attending seances with her mother, escapades to London and household and society gossip. Through her sister Lady Cynthia Asquith, the English writer and socialite, she was well connected with the literary elite and through her brother-in-law's family, she gained intriguing insights into the political machinations at the time. The diaries intersperse major international events with the comparative monotony of daily life in a country house and seemingly endless letter writing. An avid correspondent, the diary also documents, alongside original letters, the death in service of her brother Yvo in Gallipoli. The diaries describe varied events, from an altercation with her maid at Harrods, lunch at 10 Downing Street, bombs dropped in London, dinner with H.G. Wells, descriptions of her nursing duties during WWI at Winchcombe Hospital, her husband's imprisonment in Turkey and country house visits interspersed by reports and commentary on the events and battles of the First World War.Alongside the diaries, the archive includes extensive correspondence and documents spanning most of the 20th century with letters from literary figures such as H.G. Wells, J. M. Barrie, Denis Mackail and Osbert Sitwell alongside the family correspondence.Lady Mary Charteris pictured in the Tatler at the time of her engagement to Lieutenant Algernon W. Strickland of the Royal Gloucestershire Hussars.
