Mary Pauline Foster was the daughter of Herman Ten Eyck Foster (d. 1869) and Mary Pauline Lentilhon Foster (1825-1849) of New York. She was born at the family estate, Lakeland, near Geneva. Her mother died when she was ten days old, and she was raised by her father and maternal grandmother, Eliza Smith Lentilhon. After touring Europe between 1869 and 1871, she married Henry A. du Pont in 1874. They returned to Europe until 1876 and afterward lived at "Winterthur" in Delaware.
