Other information:
The National Portrait Gallery in London has a portrait of Amelia.
This is the entry for Amelia's husband, Sir Richard Paul Jodrell, second baronet in the Dictionary of National Biography (vol.29; 1892):
Sir Richard Paul Jodrell (1781-1861), was educated at Eton and Magdalen College, Oxford (B.A. 1804, M.A. 1806), and was called to the bar from Lincoln's Inn in 1803. He succeeded his maternal grand-uncle Sir John Lombe (formerly Hase), as a baronet at Lombe's death on 27 May 1817. He died on 14 Jan. 1861, leaving issue by his marriage, on 12 Dec. 1814 to Amelia Caroline King (d. 1860), natural daughter of Robert, second earl of Kingston (Gent. Mag. 3rd ser. x. 234 [Feb. 1861]; BURKE, Peerage , 1891, p. 762). He was author of: 1. 'Carmina Selecta,' 8vo, London, 1810, a privately printed selection from his Greek and Latin verses written at Eton. 2. 'Epigram' affixed to 'Lines written extempore at the Plain of Waterloo,' 4to, Dover, 1840. 3. 'Dover, Ancient and Modern, a Poem, with an episode, views, and notes,' 8vo, Dover, 1841. [Ends]
Note: I think it more likely that George King was Amelia's father - see the page for George King. Gentleman's Magazine of February 1861 does not specify which Earl of Kingston was Amelia's father; neither does a mention of their marriage 47 years earlier in the same magazine. One would therefore presume that they are referring to the living Earl of Kingston (in 1814), who was George.
