Mary Wollstonecraft (Robert Durant)

Hello my name is Mary Wollstonecraft (Robert Durant).  I was born April 27, 1759 in Spitalfields, London to Edward John Wollstonecraft and Elizabeth Dixon.  I am the second of seven siblings.  Growing up we had a stable income but my father kept spending it on projects so we were financially unstable and moved a lot during my childhood.  I moved around London with a few jobs during my earlier years then moved to France one month before louis XVI was guillotined.  Once in France I rounded up other British women and we started petitioning for equal rights for women.  In April 1795 I returned  to London for Imlay but was rejected and in May 1795 I tried to commit suicide but Imlay saved me and I tried to repay him by going to Scandanavia but when i returned I realized that our relationship was over so I tried to commit suicide again but again was stopped.  I reconnected with my old friends and William Godwin and I fell in love.  When I was giving birth the procedure went ok but then I later developed an infection and after ten days of agonizing pain I passed away on September 10, 1797.
