History
Felicite Caroline Bayley was born in Philadelphia in 1855. Her family moved to Victoria in 1858 but relocated to England during her childhood ostensibly so she and her siblings could attend school. She returned to Victoria in 1873, two years after the death of her father in Winchester, England.
On September 12, 1879 Felicite married and became the second wife to Richard Wolfenden, who was the Queen’s Printer. They had three children of their own and she raised his seven children from his previous wife. Their youngest daughter, Madge Wolfenden, became Assistant Provincial Archivist and retired in 1953.
Felicite died in Victoria in May of 1943 and is buried in Ross Bay Cemetery.
