Augusta Ada, to start with. Ada was a pretty common name in the 18th/19th centuries; Zilla much less so ;-).

Byron was the type who would be a Freemason, although I don’t know if he was.

Which was why I asked for evidence if he was. Considering that Byron had a problem with impulse control from a young age I don't see the Free Masons letting him in.

Free Masonry was frowned on, sometimes officially and severely. And at that point it was regarded as something those rebellious Americans were into.

I could see him more as a member of the Hellfire Club.
