In 1835, Charles Inskipp, a portrait painter who lived in southeast England, married Sarah Anne Baker. The couple went on to welcome at least six children:
- Emily, b. 1836
- Harold, b. 1837
- Napoleon Tristram Shandy, b. 1839
- Corregio [sic] Quinton, b. 1841
- Rembrandt Claude, b. 1844
- Boadicea Mary, b. 1848
Their last four children were evidently named after…
- French emperor Napoléon Bonaparte & the English novel Tristram Shandy,
- Italian painter Correggio (in full: Antonio Allegri da Correggio),
- Dutch painter Rembrandt (in full: Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn), and
- British queen Boadicea (who led a rebellion against the Romans circa 60 A.D.).
I’m not sure why Charles and Sarah switched to conspicuously famous names after their second baby, but, given Charles’ occupation, I’m not surprised that two of those names refer to painters.
What are your thoughts on this sibset?
