Early life
Mansfield
was born Kathleen Mansfield Beauchamp, in 1888, into a socially
prominent family in Wellington, New Zealand. The daughter of a banker
and born to a middle-class colonial family, she was also a first cousin
of author Countess Elizabeth von Arnim. Mansfield had two older sisters
and a younger brother, born in 1894.[1] Her father, Harold Beauchamp,
went on to become the chairman of the Bank of New Zealand and was also
knighted.[2] The Mansfield family moved to Karori in 1893, where
Mansfield would spend the happiest years of her childhood; she later
used her memories of this time as an inspiration for the Prelude story
