About this listen
Leonora Rowley was born in Nottingham in 1904, although some sources cite 1905.
In September 1914 the famed British humourist P G Wodehouse married her mother, Ethel, and consequently legally adopted the young Leonora.
On 14th December 1932 she married the cricketer, jockey, racehorse trainer Peter Cazalet at St Giles' Church, Shipbourne.
Leonora Wodehouse died on the 16th May 1944 after undergoing minor gynaecological surgery. A German bombing raid near her hospital had overwhelmed it with casualties. Sadly no one was able to respond to her calls for attention to stem her post-op bleeding. She was 39.
