    Biografie

    Elizabeth Gwillim, gentlewoman, author and artist, was baptized on 22 September 1762 in Aldwincle, England according to the Dictionary of Canadian Biography. She married John Graves Simcoe on 30 December 1782, at the age of twenty, if the date of birth given by the DCB is correct. From 1791 to 1796 she lived with her husband in Upper Canada as he served out his term as Lieutenant Governor. While there she kept diaries and painted water colours of Canadian scenes. Her writings were published as The Diary of Mrs. John Graves Simcoe in 1911. She died at Wolford Lodge near Honiton, England on 17 January 1850.
