Born Frances Delord Webb in Albany, NY, she was the grand-daughter of
Henry Delord. Her parents were Henry Webb and Frances Henrietta
Delord. She is in her early 20's in this painting. She was
to marry Francis Hall of Hartford, CT. Her family, the Webbs,
also were from Hartford. Both the Halls and the Webbs were
wealthy, and both Frank and Fanny, as they were to be known, inherited
much of their wealth. They never had to work for a living as we
know it today. Fanny and Frank devoted their lives to
community service. She lived out her adult life in Plattsburgh,
NY, and was the last family member to live in the Kent-Delord House.
She died there in 1913. She had no children.
