Bonham Carter family

The Bonham Carter family are descendants of John Bonham-Carter (1788–1838), a British Member of Parliament and barrister, and his wife Joanna Maria Smith. The MP was the son of Sir John Carter (before December 20, 1741 – May 18, 1808, Mayor of Portsmouth, and son of John Carter, who was a merchant). He assumed the name Bonham by Royal Licence when he inherited the estates of his cousin Thomas Bonham.[1] Joanna Maria Smith was the daughter of William Smith, the abolitionist MP; her sister Frances was the mother of Florence Nightingale, and her brother Benjamin was the father of Barbara Bodichon and Benjamin Leigh Smith. Most of the Bonham-Carters and their circle belonged to Unitarian churches.

John and Joanna had a daughter, (Joanna) Hilary Bonham-Carter (d.1865), who was an artist and friend of political journalist Harriet Martineau. Hilary's portraits of her cousin Florence are held in the National Portrait Gallery.[2][3]
