I have two carte de visite which I believe depict this lady - on the reverse of one is written "Mrs Russell Sturgis) and the image is from Alexander Bassano, 72 Piccadilly. The other is from Lombardi & Co, London and Brighton. I also have three carte de visit for Nathaniel Russell Sturgis (1805 - 87) and one of Julian Russell Sturgis (1848 - 1904). Further cards show Henry Brand, 1st Viscount Hamden (whose daughter Mary married Henry Parkman Sturgis), others show Eliza Georgiana Ellice, wife of Henry Brand. Finally I have one as yet unidentified lady and three children who I believe may also be Sturgis relatives.
