Thomas Langlois Lefroy*

Basics:

Thomas Langlois Lefroy (1776–1869) was an Irish politician and judge. Accprding to Wikepedia, Tom Lefroy had an outstanding academic record at Trinity College, Dublin. In 1793, his great-uncle sponsored Tom's legal studies in London. Later, Tom became a prominent member of the Irish bar and published a series of Law Reports. He was promoted to Chieft Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland in 1852. He admitted to family to having loved Jane Austen as a young man, and some believe he was her muse for her literary heroes. Upon learning of Jane Austen’s death, Thomas Langlois Lefroy traveled from Ireland to England to pay his respects to the British author. In addition, at an auction of Cadell's papers, Tom bought a Cadell publisher's rejection letter—for Austen’s early version of Pride and Prejudice (originally titled First Impressions).
