Clementine Churchill, née Hozier, first met her future husband in 1904 and then again in 1908. This second meeting led to 56 years of marriage. During World War II, Clementine Churchill was tireless in her efforts to boost the morale of the British public and for her many achievements, she was named Baroness Spencer-Churchill of Chartwell immediately after her husband's death in 1965. She herself died at her London home in 1977, aged 92.
