Biographical Note

Member of the Isham family of Lamport Hall, Northamptonshire.

Books

The family developed the library at Lamport Hall over many generations, until largely dispersed in the late 19th century. Elizabeth Isham refers in a manuscript diary to "the bookes which I had in my closet". Her list of her mother’s books, ca. 25 titles, is edited as Private Libraries in Renaissance England 270; a separate list of her sister’s books, 17 titles, as Private Libraries in Renaissance England 272; and a list of her own books, ca.100 titles, as Private Libraries in Renaissance England 276.
