Biography[edit]
Lady Sadler was born Mary Ann Harvey in Barnsley, Yorkshire in 1852.[1] She was the daughter of Emma Harvey and Charles Harvey, a wealthy linen manufacturer.[2][3] The family lived at Park House in Ardsley. Lady Sadler had two younger siblings, Kate and Charles.[1]
On 14 July 1885, she married Michael Ernest Sadler in London. Her husband, who was nine years younger than she, was working as a secretary at Oxford and as a steward of Christ Church. On 28 December 1888, Lady Sadler gave birth to a son, Michael Thomas Harvey Sadler. The family lived at Bensington House, West Park, Harrogate and employed one servant.[1] She was her husband's hostess at their house in Headingley, Leeds, called Buckingham House, where Sadler's Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings were displayed in a picture gallery, receiving many cultural figures like Roger Fry and emerging artists like Henry Moore and Jacob Kramer.[4]
In the 1910s, Lady Sadler and her family lived at Eastwood, Bridgwater Road, Weybridge.[1] Her husband was a professor of history at the University of Manchester, where her son was also enrolled as a student.[1] Her husband was knighted in 1919, at which time she was entitled to the title of "Lady Sadler".[1] The family moved back to Oxford in 1923 so that her husband could take up post as Master of University College.[1]
Lady Sadler died on 16 March 1931 at the Master's Lodgings of the University College.[1] In her will, her estate was valued at £88,000. Her ashes are buried in Oxford's Rose Hill Cemetery.[1]
