The Fortunes and Misfortunes of Moll Flanders

Part 2

Moll travels to Kent, taking the name Lady Flanders. She meets and weds ship's captain Lemuel. They sail to his home in Virginia. Moll bears him two children before discovering from her mother-in-law, Mrs Golightly, that she and Lemuel are actually half-brother and sister. Moll returns to England, losing most of her possessions in a storm at sea. Arriving in Lancaster, she meets Mistress Seagrave, who introduces Moll to her brother Jemmy.
