Louise Although yours sounds like a genuine find, it is important to remember that the Victoria Histories were sometimes wishful thinking rather than fact. They were written with the Gentry in mind and therefore miss out anything 'awkward' or 'unpleasant' and often relied heavily on information given from the Gentry regarding their family history. Good luck Marjorie |
