There is no proof that Florence Nightingale was a lesbian.

She Never married (although proposed to three times) on the grounds that she wanted to dedicate her life solely to charitable causes and helping others in need.

Her 3 marriage proposals:

# 1844- She turns down a proposal of marriage from her Cousin Henry Nicholson # 1848- She turns down a proposal of marriage from Richard Monckton Miles # 1857 lastly she turns down a proposal of marriage from Thomas Hoades a butcher/farmer from Lea who marries her sister instead Click on the link below for more information about Florence Nightingale:
Hre sexuality was not a matter of remark at the time she worked, and most people would think that it does not matter now.
