___________________________________
It appears they had a third dau. Louisa whose horrific death is to be found in the Gentleman’s Magazine for 1882:
@Feb 13. At Poole Hall, Cheshire, aged 36, Louisa Georgina, third dau. of Sir Chas. and Lady Cuyler. The young lady was stiing in her bedroom writing letters at about 8 o’clock on the preceding evening. Her maid had only left the room a few minutes when loud shrieks were heard, and Miss Cuyler was found in the passage, near her bedroom door, enveloped in flames. The fire was extinguished with some difficulty, but not before the unfortunate lady was dreadfully burnt; she only lingered till 2 o’clock on the following afternoon, when she expired, not having been able to give any account of the origin of the calamity. There was a fire in the room, and the candle with which she had been sealing some letters was found lying on the floor.
