Her mother died when she was only a year old, and when the two oldest siblings died of consumption in 1825, Anne was really too young to remember.
    She and Emily were especially close, writing together on their imaginary world of Gondal, a kingdom mostly separate from Angria, which Charlotte and brother Branwell wrote about. Like all the Brontë sisters, Anne was rather too dependent on these imaginary writings, but she had a strong sense of family duty. So she went away to school, where there was no time for such flights of fancy, and trained as a governess.
    Her health was not terribly good, but she perservered. In May of 1840, she went as governess to the home of the Reverend Edmund Robinson, where she would work for some years.

    Emily Brontë published only one novel, WUTHERING HEIGHTS (1847), a story of the doomed love and revenge. The sisters also published jointly a volume of verse, POEMS BY CURRER, ELLIS AND ACTON BELL, but only two copies of the book was sold.
    Emily was born in Thornton, Yorkshire, in the north of England. Her father, the Rev. Patrick Brontë, had moved from Ireland to Weatherfield, in Essex, where he taught in Sunday school. Eventually he settled in Yorkshire, the centre of his life's work. In 1812 he married Maria Branwell of Penzance. Patrick Brontë loved poetry, he published several books of prose and verse and wrote to local newspapers. In 1820 he moved to Hawort, a poverty-stricken little town at the edge of a large tract of moorland, where he served as a rector and chairman of the parish committee.

Situated above the Worth Valley amid the bleak Pennine moors, Haworth is internationally famous for its connection with the Bronte sisters , who were born in Thornton (near Bradford ), but who wrote most of their famous works while living at the Haworth Parsonage (which is now a museum owned and maintained by the Bronte Society ), while their father was parson at the adjacent Haworth church Other attractions include the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway , an authentic preserved steam railway which has been used as a setting for numerous period films and TV series, including The Railway Children (starring Jenny Agutter), Yanks (starring Richard Gere and Vanessa Redgrave), and Alan Parker's film version of Pink Floyd's The Wall (starring Bob Geldoff). Every year the village also hosts a very special 1940s weekend where locals and visitors alike don wartime attire for a host of nostalgic events. [N.B.

This escapist writing, transcribed in tiny script on small pieces of paper, continued into adulthood and is a remarkable key to the development of genius in Charlotte and Emily. In 1831, Charlotte was sent to Miss Wooler's school at Roe Head. She became a teacher there in 1835, but in 1838 she returned to Haworth. At home she found the family finances in wretched condition. Branwell : talented as a writer and painter, on whom his sisters' hopes for money and success rested : had lost three jobs and was declining into alcoholism and opium addiction. To increase their income Charlotte and her sisters laid ill-considered plans to establish a school. In order to study languages Emily and Charlotte spent 1842 at the Pensionnat HEger in Brussels, but returned home at the death of their aunt, who had willed them her small fortune. Both girls were offered positions at the

Moody moors of the Brontes By Veronica Matheson February 29, 2004 Savour the rain, the wind, the darkly hooded sky, the bleak moors. Such atmospherics inevitably recreate the moody setting for the novels of Britain's most famous literary family. Haworth in western Pennine Hills, Yorkshire In winter, the wind howls in from the North Sea, moving erratically across the craggy, unforgiving Yorkshire landscape. Add early-morning mist and an early sunset, and the harsh domain of the brooding Mr Heathcliff from Emily Bronte's classic romance Wuthering Heights lives again. The driving rain has pushed hardy sheep into hiding as a stoic Yorkshireman cheerily remarks: "It's lovely weather for ducks, but it only bothers you if you let it, lassie." In summer, such wild beauty changes as the barren moorland blossoms into a carpet of purple heather. But it's never quite the same when so benign. Here, tucked high in a sheltered fold of the landscape, is the village of Haworth, a polished jewel in Yorkshire's western Pennine Hills.

Charlotte (1816-1855) Emily (1818-1848)
Anne Bronte Charlotte Bronte Emily Bronte For the next few years, the Bronte children were taught at home. They invented games and told imaginary stories to each other. Charlotte attended Miss Wooler's school at Roe Head for one year in 1831, then returned home and taught her sisters. Charlotte returned to Roe Head as a teacher in 1835, but after suffering from depression and ill health, she resigned from her position. It was at Roe Head that Charlotte met her lifelong friend Ellen Nussey. Her many letters to Nussey have served as the best documentation of her life. The Bronte sisters worked in various schools during the next few years. Anne worked briefly as a governess in 1839 and from 1841-1845. Emily spent several months teaching at Miss Patchett's school at Law Hill. Charlotte and Emily had plans to open their own school at Haworth, and in 1842, they travelled to Brussels at their aunt's expense to learn German and improve their French. When their aunt died 8 months later, the sisters returned for the funeral. Emily never returned to Brussels, but Charlotte returned as a pupil-teacher. Her time in Belgium was not happy, in part because of her attraction to her married employer. Charlotte returned to Haworth the next year. The dream of opening a school was never realised. In the autumn of 1845, Charlotte discovered some poems written by Emily. Charlotte, Emily, and Anne soon realised they had all been secretly writing verse. The next year, they published a book of poems at their own expense entitled Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. The pseudonyms were chosen to match the first letter of their names. They only sold two copies of the book, but each sister already had additional writing plans in the works.

When Branwell was dismissed in disgrace about two years later, Anne resigned her post, feeling that was the only proper thing to do . Though she was apparently glad to leave the post, she was depressed over the uncertainty of her future. The publication of the sisters' Poems in May 1846 was quite a bright spot for her, even though they didn't sell very well. Still, this publication encouraged all of them to write novels for publication, Anne's contribution being Agnes Grey . This novel, like Emily's

Biography of Emily Brontë
Wuthering Heights , in which her familiar Yorkshire surroundings become the setting for a tragedy whose passion and beauty is equal to anything that could be imagined elsewhere. Passion is in no way inconsistent with empty moors, cold winters, and brown hills. As might be imagined from her intense emotional and artistic attachment to the country of her childhood, Emily Brontë very rarely spent any time away from home: indeed she could hardly do so at all. In 1835, at the age of seventeen she went to school at Roe Head where Charlotte was teaching, but became so pale and thin that her sister was convinced she would die unless she returned home. She left home again to be a governess in 1837 (a failure) and to study in Belgium in 1842, but both times she found she was unable to bear being away from home and her beloved, wild countryside. She could not adapt to playing the role of a genteel Victorian lady, or deal with the intrusion of strangers into her life ­ she could never fit in. Emily never made any close friends outside of her family circle. In 1845 Charlotte came across Emily's Gondal poems and read them, which made Emily furious when she found out. However, the discovery led to the publication of a volume of Charlotte, Emily, and Anne's poetry under the names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. They sold only two copies, but did not give up writing:

"I wish I could hold you," she continued bitterly, "till we were both death! I shouldn't care what you suffered. I care nothing for your sufferings. Why shouldn't you suffer? I do! Will you forget me? Will you be happy when I am in the earth? Will you say twenty years hence, 'That's the grave of Catherine Earnshaw. I loved her long ago, and was wretched to lose her; but it is past. I've loved many others since: my children are dearer to me than she was; and at death, I shall not rejoice that I am going to her: I shall be sorry that I must leave them! Will you say so, Heatcliff?"
"Don't torture me till I am as mad as yourself," cried he, wrenching his head free, and grinding his teeth."'

(from Wuthering Heights created imaginary worlds - perhaps inspired by Jonathan Swift 's Gulliver's Travels (1726). Emily and Anne created their own Gondal saga, and Bramwell and Charlotte recorded their stories about the kingdom of Angria in minute notebooks. After failing as a paiter and writer, Branwell took to drink and opium, worked then as a tutor and assistant clerk to a railway company. In 1842 he was dismissed and joined his sister Anne at Thorp Green Hall as a tutor. His affair with his employer's wife ended disastrously. He returned to Haworth in 1845, where he rapidly declined and died three years later.

WITHERING HEIGHTS?
Many of you will know that the small, but famous, town of Haworth in The West Riding of Yorkshire (reduced in 1974 to West Yorkshire) was a hot bed of Binns’s. You might expect that some of them had dealing with the Bronte’s, that town’s most celebrated family, and you could be right. Irishman Patrick Bronte became the curate of Haworth in 1820 and remained so until his death in 1861. Although widowed in 1821, and losing 2 daughters, 3 of his children moved on to achieve varying degrees of fame. From the Binns point of view by far the most important Bronte was Branwell. In a lengthy article, from the Bradford Observer on 17 February 1894, entitled "One Who Knew Them", by a former Haworth resident, we learn that the informant's "...early life was spent in Haworth. His father was a tailor for many years in the moorland township, and among his clients were Patrick and his on Branwell Bronte". We need to know more - a Binns mentioned in a Bronte book!! Intriguingly the "One Who Knew Then" also tells us that his grandfather died at the battle of Waterloo which took place in 1815. Is there a connection - can Bindex help?
