In 1833 she married in Paris an attaché of the embassy, Alexander George Fullerton, who came from Ireland. She converted to Roman Catholicism in 1846 and wrote The Life of St. Frances of Rome, and Others. She wrote several novels, some of which were very successful. They include Ellen Middleton (1844), Grantley Manor (1847), Lady Bird (1852), Life of St.Francis of Rome (1855), The Countess of Bonneval (1858), Rose Leblanc (1861), Laurentia, a Tale of Japan (1861), Too Strange Not to Be True (1864), Constance Sherwood (1865), A Stormy Life (1867), Helpers of the Holy Soul (1868), Mrs. Gerald's Niece (1869), Life of Louisa de Carvajal (1873), A Will and a Way (1881), and Life of Elizabeth Lady Falkland (1883).

In a margin note in his copy of Ellen Middleton, Edgar Allan Poe wrote: A remarkable work, and one which I find much difficulty in admitting to be the composition of a woman. Not that many good and glorious things have not been the composition of women - but, because, here, the severe precision of style, the thoroughness, and the luminousness, are points never observable, in even the most admirable of their writings.

I had not thought to write the story of my life; but the wishes of those who have at all times more right to command than occasion to entreat aught at my hands, have in a manner compelled me thereunto. The divers trials and the unlooked-for comforts which have come to my lot during the years that I have been tossed to and fro on this uneasy sea-the world-have wrought in my soul an exceeding sense of the goodness of God, and an insight into the meaning of the sentence in Holy Writ which saith, "His ways are not as our ways, nor his thoughts like unto our thoughts." And this puts me in mind that there are sayings which are in every one's mouth, and therefore not to be lightly gainsayed, which nevertheless do not approve themselves to my conscience as wholly just and true. Of these is the common adage, "That misfortunes come not alone." For my own part, I have found that when a cross has been laid on me, it has mostly been a single one, and that other sorrows were oftentimes removed, as if to make room for it. And it has been my wont, when one trial has been passing away, to look out for the next, even as on a stormy day, when the clouds have rolled away in one direction and sunshine is breaking overhead, we see others rising in the distance. There has been no portion of my life free from some measure of grief or fear sufficient to recall the words that "Man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward;" and none so reft of consolation that, in the midst of suffering, I did not yet cry out, "The Lord is my shepherd; his rod and his staff comfort me." I was born in the year 1557, in a very fair part of England, at Sherwood Hall, in the county of Stafford. For its comely aspect, commodious chambers, sunny gardens, and the sweet walks in its vicinity, it was as commendable a residence for persons of moderate fortune and contented minds as can well be thought of. Within and without this my paternal home nothing was wanting which might please the eye, or minister to tranquillity of mind and healthful recreation. I reckon it amongst the many favors I have received from a gracious Providence, that the earlier years of my life were spent amidst such fair scenes, and in the society of parents who ever took occasion from earthly things to lead my thoughts to such as are imperishable, and so to stir up in me a love of the Creator, who has stamped his image on this visible world in characters of so great beauty; whilst in the tenderness of those dear parents unto myself I saw, as it were, a type and representation of his paternal love and goodness. My father was of an ancient family, and allied to such as were of greater note and more wealthy than his own. He had not, as is the manner with many squires of our days, left off residing on his own estate in order to seek after the shows and diversions of London; but had united to a great humility of mind and a singular affection for learning a contentedness of spirit which inclined him to dwell in the place assigned to him by Providence. He had married at an early age, and had ever conformed to the habits of his neighbors in all lawful and kindly ways, and sought no other labors but such as were incidental to the care of his estates, and no recreations but those of study, joined to a moderate pursuit of field-sports and such social diversions as the neighborhood afforded. His outward appearance was rather simple than showy, and his manners grave and composed. When I call to mind the singular modesty of his disposition, and the retiredness of his manners, I often marvel how the force of circumstances and the urging of conscience should have forced one so little by nature inclined to an unsettled mode of life into one which, albeit peaceful in its aims, proved so full of danger and disquiet.

Written by Catholic Author Lady Georgiana Fullerton. Excerpts "IT IS A GOOD AND WHOLESOME THOUGHT TO PRAY FOR THE DEAD THAT THEY MAY BE RELEASED FROM SINS." THESE are the words of Holy Scripture. Since prayer for departed souls is good, must it not be good also to offer up in their behalf acts of heroic charity and the merit of a life consecrated to God in Holy Religion? Mdlle. was strongly impressed with the thought that there existed Orders intended to supply every need in the Church militant, but none exclusively devoted to the relief of the suffering portion of the Church, and it appeared to her that she was called upon to fill up this void. The idea seemed at the outset too bold a one. She felt startled, almost alarmed, at its magnitude, and earnestly entreated our Lord to make known to her if such was indeed to be her mission. She begged of Him, by His Five Sacred Wounds, to give her five indications of His will in this respect. Her prayers were heard, and during the course of the years 1854 and 1855 these tokens were successively vouchsafed to her. What she had asked for was: (1) That the Holy Father should approve in writing, and give his blessing to, the association of prayers set on foot on All Saints' Day, and on the 7th of July, 1854, Pius IX. wrote with his own hand at the bottom of the petition presented to him, Benedical vos Deus benedictione perpetua-"May God bless you with an everlasting blessing !" (2) that a great number of Bishops should approve of this Association; (3) that it should extend rapidly; (4) that a few pious persons should co-operate in the scheme, and devote themselves to works of charity in behalf of the souls in Purgatory; (5) that a Priest might be met with who had previously formed a similar project. In the month of July, 1855, Mdlle. thought of consulting the Curé d'Ars, whom she had for the first time heard of a little while before. The sanctity of this extraordinary man was beginning to be much spoken of, not only in France, but all over Europe. Pilgrims flocked to the insignificant little town of Ars, seeking the advice and help of the poor Curé, whose ascetic mode of life, spiritual discernment, heroic virtues, and even miraculous gifts, were gradually becoming known, in spite of the desperate efforts he made to conceal them. We can hardly imagine, when reading his Life, that in the neighbouring country of France, not more than a few years ago, a man was actually living that we might have seen and conversed with, and gone to confession to, the details of whose supernatural existence are like the marvels that we read of in the Lives of the Saints. Mdlle. felt persuaded that this holy Priest was the instrument appointed by God to make her acquainted with His will, and earnestly longed in some way or other to communicate with him. Excerpt: On the 5th of August, this friend sent her M. Vianney's answer: "Tell her that she can establish, as soon as she likes, an Order for the souls in Purgatory." The future Foundress never had any personal communication with the Curé d'Ars, and yet he always used to say, "I know her." On the 30th of October, Mdlle. - entreated him to pray on All Souls' Day for her intention, and on the 11th of November, the Abbé T, his assistant in his extensive correspondence, wrote to her as follows: "Your edifying letter reached me at Pont d'Ain, where our worthy Bishop, Monseigneur Chalandon, was preaching a retreat. This seemed expressly arranged by Providence, in order that I should speak to him of you and your pious projects. On my return to Ars, on All Souls' Day, I mentioned your wishes to my holy Curé, begging him to meditate on the subject in prayer before he gave me an answer. Three or four times since I have put to him the same question, and always received the same answer, "He thinks that it is God who has inspired you with the thought of an heroic self-devotion, and that you will do well to found an Order in behalf of the souls in
