Louisa (1845-1925) married the industrialist Alfred Baldwin and was the mother of prime minister Stanley Baldwin, and grandmother to Oliver Baldwin. Louisa wrote novels, short stories, and poetry, sometimes credited as "Mrs. Alfred Baldwin." Her sister Alice (1837-1910) married John Lockwood Kipling, and was the mother of Rudyard Kipling. Her sister Georgiana (1840-1920) married the pre-Raphaelite painter Edward Burne-Jones. Her sister Agnes (1843-1906) married the president of the Royal Academy Edward Poynter.
