Lord Byron had earned himself a reputation of being extravagant, melancholic, courageous, unconventional, eccentric, flamboyant and controversial. He was known for his independent nature and extremes of temper. His personal life was full of affairs and scandals. His first love includes his distant cousins Mary Duff and Margaret Parker. He was also attracted to Mary Chaworth, whom he met, while at Harrow. His affair with the married Lady Caroline Lamb shocked the British public. Lord Byron was also accused of incest, due to a possible love affair with his half-sister, Augusta Leigh. It was even assumed that Leigh's third daughter, Elizabeth Medora Leigh was the child of Lord Byron. Eventually, Byron courted Lady Caroline's cousin Anne Isabella Milbanke and married her on January 2, 1815 at Seaham Hall, County Durham. The couple had a daughter, Ada Lovelace born in 1815. The married life of Lord Byron was not happy and following the rumors of marital violence, adultery, incest and sodomy, he left his wife and England in 1816. His other affairs include Claire Clairmont, Marianna Segati, Margarita Cogni and the young Countess Guiccioli. With Claire Clairmont he had an illegitimate child in 1817, Clara Allegra Byron. Death After falling ill on February 15, 1824, Lord Byron was given the remedy of bloodletting which weakened him further. Before he could make any considerable recovery, he caught a violent cold. It was believed that the unsterilised medical instrumentation developed sepsis in him. Following a violet fever, Byron breathed his last on April 19, 1824.
