Lucy Herbert, Countess of Powis
Lucy Herbert, Countess of Powis, formerly Lady Lucy Graham, was the wife of Edward Herbert, 2nd Earl of Powis.
Lady Lucy was the daughter of James Graham, 3rd Duke of Montrose, and his wife, the former Lady Caroline Maria Montagu.
She married Edward Herbert, Viscount Clive on 9 February 1818. He succeeded to the Powis earldom in 1839, at which point Lucy became Countess of Powis. The couple had seven children:
- Unnamed daughter Herbert
- Edward James Herbert, 3rd Earl of Powis
- Lady Lucy Caroline Herbert, who married Frederick Calvert and had no children
- Lady Charlotte Elizabeth Herbert, who married Hugh Montgomery and had children
- Lt.-Gen. Rt. Hon. Sir Percy Egerton Herbert, who married Lady Mary Caroline Louisa Thomas Petty-FitzMaurice and had children
- Very Rev. Hon. George Herbert, Dean of Hereford, who married Elizabeth Beatrice Sykes and had children
- Hon. Robert Charles Herbert, who married Anna Maria Cludde and had children
- Maj.-Gen. William Henry Herbert, who married Sybella Augusta Milbank and had children.
A portrait of the countess, at around the time of her marriage, was painted by Frederick Richard Say and is held at Powis Castle.
A mineral collection donated to the National Museum of Wales in 1929 by George Charles Herbert, 4th Earl of Powis, Lucy's grandson, was for a time thought to have belonged to her, but was actually the collection made by her predecessor and mother in-law, Henrietta Clive, Countess of Powis.
