Jane and Me: Caroline Knight, Jane Austen's Fifth Great Niece

Chawton House is many things to many people – to Caroline it will always be home. As a direct descendant of Jane’s brother, Edward Knight, Caroline grew up at Chawton House while it was still her family’s private home. Caroline’s early life was filled with the delights of living in a sixteenth-century English manor, the good cheer of family gatherings and centuries-old Christmas traditions in the Great Hall, the beauty of a country life, and the joys of helping her Granny bake cakes and serve Jane Austen devotees in the Chawton House tea room. When she was seventeen, Caroline and her family left the home her family had lived in for centuries, following the death of her grandfather, Edward Knight III. In this talk Caroline will share some of her most precious memories of her childhood at Chawton House and the writing of Jane & Me: My Austen Heritage over 25 years later.
