Summary

Description
English: The Jerome Sisters : Jennie (1854-1921), Clara (1851-1935) and Leonie (1859-1943). These three wealthy young Americans arrive in England at the end of the 19th century in search of good match in big families. Social ascension, success, disappointments are all experiences that they will go through together. Their father, Leonard Walter Jerome (1817-1891), is a descendant of Timothy Jerome, a French Huguenot immigrant who arrived in the New York Colony in 1717. Leonard Jerome, a Wall Street speculator, built a mansion on Madison Avenue and a villa in Newport, Rhode Island. Her spouse is Clarissa Hall (1825-1895). Jennie Jerome married Lord Randolph Spencer-Churchill, younger son of the Duke of Marlborough and was the mother of Winston Churchill. Clara Jerome married Moreton Frewen, an English adventurer who was at one time a cattle rancher in Wyoming, and later became a Member of Parliament. He was nicknamed Mortal Ruin by some of his family members, because he had an unfortunate streak of bad luck with his investments. Leonie Blanche Jerome married Sir John Leslie, 2nd Baronet, a member of an important Anglo-Irish family.

Ces trois jeunes américaines fortunées arrivent en Angleterre à la fin du 19ème siècle à la recherche de bon partis dans les grandes familles. L'ascension sociale, le succès, les déceptions sont autant d'expériences qu'elles vont traverser ensemble. Leur père, Leonard Walter Jerome (1817-1891), est un descendant de Timothy Jerome, un immigré huguenot français qui est arrivé dans la colonie de New York en 1717. Leonard Jerome, un spéculateur de Wall Street, a construit un manoir sur Madison Avenue et une villa à Newport, au Rhode Island. Son épouse est Clarissa Hall (1825–1895). Jennie Jerome a épousé Lord Randolph Spencer-Churchill, fils cadet du duc de Marlborough et était la mère de Winston Churchill. Clara Jerome s'est mariée avec Moreton Frewen, un aventurier anglais qui était à la fois un éleveur de bétail au Wyoming, puis est devenu député. Il a été surnommé Ruine Mortale par certains membres de sa famille, parce qu'il avait une malchance malheureuse avec ses investissements. Leonie Blanche Jerome a épousé Sir John Leslie, 2ème baronnet, membre d'une importante famille anglo-irlandaise.
