Margaret Izard Manigault

  • American

Margaret Izard Manigault, eldest daughter of Ralph Izard and Alice DeLancey Izard, moves through the late-eighteenth-century world of Charleston and its transatlantic circles, spending much of her early life in England and France before returning to South Carolina. Her marriage to Gabriel Manigault in 1785 linked two influential Lowcountry families, and her life unfolded between Charleston, The Oaks plantation in Goose Creek Parish, and later the social orbit of Philadelphia's Carolina Row. Remembered through portraits by Jeremiah Meyer, Gilbert Stuart, and Edward Greene Malbone, she stands as a figure shaped by heritage, travel, and the interconnected networks of Izard and Manigault kinship until her death in Philadelphia in 1824. - AsNotedIn
