. . . Until the arrival of Mary, Madame Jumel had lived in the mansion alone with her servants; even the loquacious Henry Nodine was in her service from 1817 to 1821. It was a bitter change for this ambitious woman. Her neighbors on the Heights looked with a new suspicion upon her mysterious re- appearance in solitary state and were colder and more distant than ever. She must have longed for the gay society of Paris, into which she had made such a successful entry, but time heals all wounds, an...d as the years passed she even took occasion to look up some of her Bowen kinsfolk. It will be remembered that she had an illegitimate half-sister, Lavinia Bowen, or Ballou, born at Providence between her mother's two marriages. Lavinia, in 18 17, was Mrs. James G. Jones, and was living in New York City. This sister, whom Madame Jumel had occa- sionally visited, had a daughter, Ann Eliza Nightingale (who may also have taken the name of her father), and who was then married to John Vandervoort. The Vandervoorts had a bakery in Christopher Street.
