Hello! In this Episode of It's a History Podcast, I cover Anna Murphy and her husband Charles Wolseley. Anna had come from a family that was a part of the New Money Scene after making their fortune as the only hardware store in San Fransisco at the start of the Gold Rush. Charles came from a family that was strapped for cash, having came into his title as a child. These two may have started their marriage on good terms, but by the end... Lets say it was not too good for Charles.

Sources for today's episode include the husband hunters: American Heiresses Who Married Into the British Aristocracy by Anne Decourcy
