Frances Alsop Frances Alsop Frances Alsop ("née" Daly; 1 September 1782 – 2 June 1821) was the illegitimate child of Richard Daly (1758–1813), manager of the Smock Alley Theatre, Dublin, and the actress Dorothea Jordan "née" Bland (1761–1816). Frances was born and raised in England, where her mother – adopting the stage name 'Mrs Jordan' – had continued her stage career, which by 1786 led her to be part of London's Drury Lane theatre company. By 1790 Dorothea Jordan was the mistress of the Duke of Clarence (later King William IV of England). Frances's story begins in earnest in 1803 at her
Dorothea Maria of Salm lasting conflict about her rights to rule Remiremont. In 1691, both parties appeared before the French monarch as mediator. Dorothea Maria appointed her sister Christina of Salm as "Second-in-Command" in 1700, and Christina was therefore made regent in Remiremont during the minority of Béatrice Hiéronyme de Lorraine in 1702-1711. Dorothea Maria of Salm Dorothea Maria zu Salm (in French: "Dorothée-Marie de Salm") (1651-1702), was a German-Roman monarch as Princess Abbess of the immediate Imperial Remiremont Abbey in the Duchy of Lorraine which then formed a part of the Holy Roman Empire, but later on was annexed by France in 1766.
