Lucy Amelia Powys (1890-1986) was the youngest of the eleven children of the Rev. C. F. Powys, vicar of Montacute, Somerset, and Mary Cowper Johnson; her siblings included the writers John Cowper Powys, Theodore Francis Powys, and Llewelyn Powys. She married Hounsell Penny, a miller, in 1911 and they had one daughter, Mary (b. 1915). The family lived at Horsebridge, Hampshire, before moving to Shootash, Hampshire, in 1938. Hounsell Penny died in 1945 and later that year Mary married Gerard Casey. In 1950 Lucy moved to Mappowder, Dorset, to be near her brother Theodore. She was joined there in the nineteen seventies by Mary and Gerard, who lived in the cottage next door until Mary's death in 1980. Lucy Penny died in November 1986.

The archive contains papers accumulated by Lucy Penny during her lifetime, supplemented by papers inherited from her mother Mary Cowper Powys and sisters Gertrude and Phillippa (Katie) Powys. Following Lucy's death in 1986 these would have been been inherited by her son-in-law Gerard Casey (d. 2000), with the combined Penny and Casey collection being bequeathed by him to Louise de Bruin, the consignor at the 2023 auction.
