He was born into a large clerical family, the third son of William Markham, Archbishop of York from 1776 to 1807;[5] his brother John Markham was a noted Naval officer, and one of his sisters was Frederica Murray, Countess of Mansfield. He received his education at Westminster School.[6] He matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford in 1780, graduating B.A. in 1784 and M.A. in 1787.[7]

Divorce aftermath

After the divorce, Elizabeth Evelyn Markham was taken under the wing of her cousin Laura Pulteney, 1st Countess of Bath. She also inherited a substantial fortune when the Countess died in 1808. She married her lover John Fawcett, adultery with whom was the basis of the divorce, and he took the surname Pulteney.[16][17] There were two sons and four daughters of this marriage.[18]

John Fawcett (1766/7–1849) was a Christ Church, Oxford graduate, the son of Richard Fawcett of Grendon. His change of surname to Pulteney was by royal licence, in 1813.[19] The couple had a son, John Apsley Pulteney of the 12th Lancers (1805/6–1840).[20] Their eldest daughter Henrietta Laura Pulteney (1804–1898) married in 1832 the Rev. Philip Gurdon, and was mother of General Evelyn Pulteney Gurdon.[21]

As Elizabeth Evelyn Sutton, she was known as a landscape artist.[22]
