They are usually about Girl Guides (Girl Scouts) and illustrated with her own black & white photographs. She also wrote lots of those school stories (think Chalet School) that were popular in the 1940s & 1950s.<br /><br />Her grandfather however was Frederick Doulton founder of the Doulton Lambeth Pottery - part of what is now Royal Doulton China.Blodwyninexilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12852174180640555041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-19281360469607447822015-04-21T23:24:59.819-04:002015-04-21T23:24:59.819-04:00I still say my relatives were somehow related to A...I still say my relatives were somehow related to Andy Griffith. Those ears, shock of hair, and toothy grin are telling. And, my North Carolina ancestors were close enough to have connected. You should see the pictures of my mother's cousins and my uncles.<br /><br />I probably have a bunch of ne'er-do-wells in my family tree.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-3932538281795286122015-04-21T21:29:18.583-04:002015-04-21T21:29:18.583-04:00Oh wow!
