Mary is the middle or 3rd oldest of the 5 sisters in the Bennet family. She is between eighteen or nineteen years of age. She has a plain personality (at times abrupt), but she also has yearning to be a very accomplished woman as far as piano playing, singing, and reading are concern. She is sometimes rude and conceited.
According to Jane Austen's relatives, she revealed to them that "She (Mary) obtained nothing higher in marriage than one of her uncle Philiphs clerks".
