Lilla Graves

Lilla Graves (1832-1868) was the leader of the Blighters gang in the Westminster borough of London.

Biography[]

Lilla Graves was born to an upper-class London family, and she was the sister of Mildred Graves. She had ideas of violence, and her parents failed to raise her as a lady; the two sisters joined the Blighters gang. Mildred, who was at a cemetery in Lambeth, buried Lilla's victims there, but Mildred was kidnapped by Jacob Frye in 1868. Later that year, Jacob met Lilla face-to-face after he took over Red Growler Distillery, and Jacob kicked Lilla to her knees and stabbed her in the throat with his hidden blades before she could escape.
