| Edward was adopted by a rich, childless cousin, Thomas Knight, who bequeathed his fortune to Edward. This practice was quite common during this time and not regarded at all strange. After completing a grand tour on the continent, Edward settled down to marry, beget 11 children, and oversee his vast estates of Godmersham and Chawton after his benefactor's death. While Edward did not seem to contribute an enormous of money towards the upkeep of his widowed mother and spinster sisters, he allowed them to live rent free in Chawton Cottage puma drift cat, which he refurbished, and where Jane spent her most prolific years as an author.
Whenever Jane needed to edit her novels she would visit Henry. On one such occasion, Jane visited the library at Carlton House at the Prince Regent's invitation. Henry's bank failed in 1816 puma golf, placing the Austen family in a minor financial crisis, especially Edward. After Jane's death, Henry, a widower, wrote her first biographical notice when Persuasion and Nor When they were infants puma suede, the children were sent away for a year and a half to live with a nurse in Deane, a common practice of the time and one that worked remarkably well for the Austens, for all their children survived in an age when infant mortality was high. Mrs. Austen did not neglect her absent children, visiting them every day. Henry, known for his intelligence, charm and sunny disposition, was Jane's favorite brother. He had made his living as a soldier in the Oxfordshire militia for eight years. Married to the glamorous widow Eliza de Feuillide, ten years his senior, he quit the militia in 1801 and operated a bank in London, where he and Eliza lived. Henry acted as his sister's literary agent and was the liaison between Jane and her publishers. Edward Austen Knight 1768- 1852 James, the eldest son and his mother's favorite child, was considered to be the successful writer in the family. According to his father, James "possessed in the highest degree, classical knowledge, literary taste, and the power of elegant composition." James took great interest in Jane's writing, mentoring her and giving advice. He experienced some success as the editor and writer of the Loiterer, published at Oxford in 1789 and 1790 and which ran for 60 issues. He also wrote poetry, and sermons when he took over the Steventon living in 1800 after his parents and sisters moved to Bath. Rev. James Austen 1765-1819 George is considered the forgotten son. No one knows precisely what was wrong with him – a mental or physical disability, or both- but around the age of ten he was sent to be cared for in a small Hampshire village by the Cullum family. While the Austens contributed to his upkeep, he was not mentioned in their correspondence and very little is known of him. The Cullums cared expertly for George, who outlived his first caretaker and died at the ripe old age of 70. The boys were taught by their father, and Jane and her sister Cassandra were encouraged to read the books in Rev. Austen's extensive library. The family supported Jane in her writing, and as a matter of course held readings and poetry sessions, put on theatrical plays, and played music and games in the evenings.
