Lucy RUSSELL, Countess of Bedford 1581-1627
Biographical Note
Daughter of John Harington, 1st Baron Harington of Exton, Rutland, (1539/40-1613) and Anne Harington (c.1554-1620). Married Edward Russell in 1594.
Books
A number of surviving books with variant forms of the Russell armorial crest indicate the existence of a library which has been suggested to be “a joint interest” (Armorials database). Lucy bequeathed books from her own (Harington) family to Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.
