Gore Mrs Catherine Grace

Gore, Mrs. Catherine Grace, the daughter of a Mr. Moody, was born at East Retford, Notts, in 1799, and in 1823 married Captain Charles Gore.

Her first novel, Theresa Marehntont, appeared in that year, and before 1832 she had published The Reign of Terror, The Lettre de Cachet, Hungarian Tales, Manners of the Day, Mother and Dauyhter, and The Fair of Mayfair. Then there was an interval of non-production during which she travelled, her next venture being Mrs. Armitaye in 1839. Cecil; or the Adventures of a Coxcomb, Greville, Fascination, and The Banker's Wife are the best-known amongst the many clever but superficial sketches of society which she continued to throw off until her death in 1861.
