Venetia Stanley (1887–1948)



Beatrice Venetia Stanley Montagu (August 22 1887 – August 3 1948) was a British aristocrat and socialite best known for the many letters that Prime Minister Herbert Henry Asquith wrote to her between 1910 and 1915. The youngest daughter of Edward Lyulph Stanley, 4th Baron Sheffield and Stanley of Alderley, Venetia was a namesake and collateral descendant of Venetia Stanley (1600–1633) who was renowned for her racy beauty and mysterious death.
