Due to Fanny’s talents, education and beauty Wollstonecraft ~~naturally~~ started to admire her as an angel-like person.

	Wollstonecraft’s sister Eliza married (in the same year when their mother died) Meredith Bishop with whom she got a daughter one year later called Mary Frances Bishop. It is generally suggested that Eliza suffered from post-natal depression and while Wollstonecraft cared for her she was able to convince Eliza to leave her husband and child. According to Wollstonecraft Bishop was the stereotype of a negative husband who did not care for his wife and suppressed her. This was a tremendous step for a woman during the 18th ~~– Century~~, because from now on Eliza had to deal with consequences: social marginalisation, no chance of remarriage and further children, no financial security ~~etc~~.[[7]]		Wollstonecraft’s sister Eliza married (in the same year when their mother died) Meredith Bishop with whom she got a daughter one year later called Mary Frances Bishop.

	Together with Fanny Blood and her sisters Everina and Eliza ~~did~~ Wollstonecraft ~~establish~~ a school at Newington Green but due to Fanny’s marriage with Hugh Skeys, she left together with him to Lisbon. In November 1785 Wollstonecraft travelled to Lisbon to find her friend Fanny dying in childbirth. When Wollstonecraft came back to London she had to deal with the next setback – she discovered that her sisters had financially ruined the school due to lack of knowledge. Further the parents of Fanny asked her now for financial support. Because of all these burdens her depressions, which she first experienced during youth, came back and she wished herself dead again.[[8]]		Together with Fanny Blood and her sisters Everina and Eliza Wollstonecraft established a school at Newington Green but due to Fanny’s marriage with Hugh Skeys, she left together with him to Lisbon.
