Biography

Flora Mure-Campbell, Marchioness of Hastings and 6th Countess of Loudoun (1780 - 8 January 1840) was a British peeress second daughter of James Mure-Campbell, 5th Earl of Loudoun and Lady Flora Macleod. She married Francis Rawdon-Hastings, 2nd Earl of Moira (later Marquess of Hastings), on 12 July 1804 and they had six children. [1]

The Countess of Loudoun, (1780-1840) Was the wife of Lord Moira, the Governor- General of India, who afterwards became Marquis of Hastings. She stayed at St. Helena for a short time, on her passage to England, with her children, Lord Hungerford, and Lady Flora Hastings, whose fate was afterwards so tragic. She was the unwitting cause of Lowe's tactless invitation to Napoleon to come and meet the Countess at dinner. This invitation was sent on May 11th, 1816.[2]
