Austen also provides a few fathers who provide well for their daughters:
The Rev. Mr. Morland: The father of Northanger Abbey’s heroine is a sensible father. His daughter, Catherine, has a dowry of £3,000 to bring to her marriage with Henry Tilney.
Mr. Woodhouse: In Emma, Emma’s parents’ finances were such that she is worth £30,000, making her quite rich!
Sir Thomas Bertram: Although the head of Mansfield Park’s Bertram family let his elder son get away with wasting money, Sir Thomas pays an extensive visit to his plantation in Antigua, the West Indies, to recoup his finances.
Mr. Musgrove: If Persuasion’s Sir Walter is the financially careless father, Mr. Musgrove, a hearty, prosperous gentleman-farmer, faces no financial problem in marrying off two daughters at once.
