, on 22 November 1767 in front of the Rev. Baddeley. The witnesses were Annie and Richard Horne. Sources hint at a possible second ceremony at a local Catholic church, but there is no evidence for it. Such a ceremony would have been risky, as the
anti-Catholic penal laws were still in force, mandating execution for Catholic priests who married Catholics and imprisonment for the
newlyweds. A drawing of Kauffman by
Nathaniel Dance (c. 1767), now in the
British Museum, shows her with a wedding ring and her hand over her heart, indicating love. The couple lived apart, and relations between them quickly broke down. Kauffman and her father paid Horn off, and he left England for the
continent; the marriage was dissolved in February 1768. ==Death==
