Ann Louisa Baring

Ann Louisa Baring (born Ann Louisa Bingham 1782) was the wife of Alexander Baring, Lord Ashburton and first child of William Bingham and Anne (Willing) Bingham.

She was born the day before the Bank of North America sold its first charter shares, her father and grandfather working closely with Alexander Hamilton to write the by-laws. Her father was rumored to be the richest man in America after the Revolutionary War.[1]
