	Augusta Leigh (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Augusta Byron, later Augusta Leigh (1783 - 1851) was the only daughter of Captain "Mad Jack" Byron, the poet's father, by his first wife, Amelia d'Arcy, Baroness Conyers in her own right, the divorced wife of Francis, Marquis of Carmarthen, who was later to become 5th Duke of Leeds.
		Augusta's mother died soon after she gave birth and it was her grandmother, Lady Holderness, who raised her for a few years.
		Augusta's husband, George, however never questioned the paternity of Medora, and she grew up among her brothers and sisters blissfully unaware that she might be the first of Byron's three daughters.

		Augusta Leigh (1783-1851) was the half-sister of the poet Lord Byron.
		When, during his honeymoon (which he gallantly termed his "treaclemoon"), Augusta heard that he had "taken to stalking the long gallery in the middle of the night with his pistol and his dagger, threatening to kill himself", she advised Annabella to ignore these "grumps".
		As it was, after the crisis of Byron's marriage and subsequent exile, Augusta was left at the mercy of a spendthrift husband she did not love and an embittered sister-in-law bent on revenge.

	New Statesman: Sex with sister. - Review - book review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Augusta's father, "Mad Jack" Byron, was a notorious spendthrift and rake; her mother was a marquess's wife seduced and then abandoned by "Mad Jack", so that Augusta, like her half-brother, was brought up with the twin inheritance of snobbery and crippling debts.
		Unfortunately for his wife, however, Colonel George Leigh neglected to die heroically on a battlefield, instead allowing his career to be ruined by various financial misappropriations and the subsequent loss of the patronage of the Prince of Wales.
		Their Augusta is as passive before the vicissitudes of Byron's marriage as she was later before the deliberate cruelties of a vengeful Lady Byron.

		The daughter of one of the most scandalous affairs of the 18th century, Augusta herself married the horse-mad Lieutenant-Colonel George Leigh, equerry and companion of the Prince of Wales.
		But it is Augusta's subsequent love affair with her half-brother, Byron the poet, that constitutes the most remarkable adventure of her life.
		Augusta Leigh was the child of one of the most notorious scandals of late 18th-Century England - the elopement of 'Mad Jack' Byron with the beautiful and willful Marchioness of Carmarthen - and scandal would pursue Augusta her whole life.

		Located 567 km north of Adelaide, 261 km north of Port Augusta and 194 m above sea level, Leigh Creek is a company town on the edge of the desert (its annual rainfall is 205 mm) run by the NRG Flinders.
		The Leigh Creek area was first settled by Harry Leigh (after whom the town and creek are named) in 1856.

	Classics in the History of Psychology -- Introduction to Menabrea/Lovelace (1842/1843) by C.D. Green
		Augusta Ada Byron was born in December of 1815 to the famous poet George Gordon, Lord Byron and his wife, Anne Isabella Milbanke, Lady Byron, less than a year after their marriage.
		To begin with, Bowden got her full name wrong: she was Augusta Ada, named after her aunt Augusta Leigh, not "Ada Augusta." His probable source for this error was the biography of Ralph Lovelace, Ada's younger son, written by his wife, Mary Lovelace (1920, p.
		In 1980 the U.S. Department of Defense christened their new standard computer language "Ada," in memory of her presumed status as the "first computer programmer." In 1982, Anthony Hyman wrote a biography of Babbage that is far superior to Moseley's, and that is now considered by most to be the "standard" account of his life.

		At the heart of the account is Crane's awkwardly dramatic and expository "imaginary dialogue" of the last meeting of the aging Augusta and Annabella, in 1851.
		The poet had a lifelong affair with Augusta, his half-sister, who gave birth to a daughter assumed to be Byron's.
