She died following the birth of her sixth child in 1782. She had been ill for many years. It is believed that she suffered from Diabetes, and that the strain of childbearing eventually grew too much. She had previously been left seriously ill after a miscarriage in 1776.

Lucy Elizabeth 1 died from falling ill and was only a couple of months old. Lucy Elizabeth 2 died after her mother died of child birthing complications. Lucy Elizabeth 2 had become sick from whooping cough and never recovered.

She always had a sickly disposition as her mother did, but she also inherited her mother's beauty which was frequently complimented, to her chagrin. She preferred to be known for her character or mind. So she died from the same disease like her mother.
