Can't inherit notability as the wife of an earl, especially since she died before he became an earl. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:29, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

  • Keep. I believe notability is demonstrated. Women of this period tend not to be recognised in the same way as their husbands, because they were nominally less powerful, but it seems to me that she was an eminent member of an eminent family. Deb (talk) 21:01, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Keep. This article on a would-have-been countess meets WP:GNG; this article is well-sourced and detailed for a woman of her station and time. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 21:42, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

  • Comment -- Does not being dedicatee of a poem by a notable poet provide some notability? Otherwise the content is mere genealogy. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:49, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

::Much of biography is "mere genealogy." Do you mean her Family tree? There is more than pedigree present in the article. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 17:29, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep - an incredible number of independent sources for a woman of this period. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 00:14, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Keep Meets GNG and she's doing better than most women in the peerage project from this period! Missvain (talk) 01:33, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Keep - highly notable and connected in her time. I also note she's related to the current ruling house. Bearian (talk) 21:58, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
