Sarah Lea married Thomas Wright Hill (1763-1851), who had been a type of reformer. Her husband came from a family of dissenting small traders. It was while serving an apprenticeship in Birmingham that her husband came under the influence of Joseph Priestley (scientist, Republican and Unitarian radical). Thomas returned to this profession as a school master starting Hill Top in 1803 after a failed business venture manufacturing ponchos. He was also a noted stenographer.

George Henry Harlow (c. 1787-1819) was born in London. In 1802, at the age of fifteen, he entered the studio of Thomas Lawrence. From 1804, he regularly exhibited portraits at the Royal Academy, before going to study in Italy. There he devoted himself to studying and copying the work of the Italian Renaissance masters, such as Raphael.
