I recently discovered a #WW1 nurse’s grave and decided to research her and do a blog.I’ve discovered a huge story of upward mobility which needs a few blogs! Her mum was a barmaid. She married a grocer. 2 sons were surgeons3 daughters were nurses,1 married a chemist,1 a rev and one a gentleman!Wow!

"Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king and then became one?"
He was knee deep in frogs!!!

I’ve Been to the turner exhibition in Liverpool I loved this painting
I didn’t notice the sailors in the sea until I got up close to it. Incredible detail and the “rainbow” looked so luminous. Lovely

When you find the grave locally of a decorated nurse from #WW1, decide to research it and find 3 nurses and 2 surgeon siblings , their mother who was a barmaid and a grandson son who was awarded the VC and died aged 22. That wasn’t on my bingo card! A blog it is then! #familyhistory more below 👇

It’s hard to make the words out but it’s a memorial to a doctor who left money to the church
It’s a quote about the Good Samaritan I think.

Made by Wordsworth’s sister Dorothy and Dora his daughter. In about 1810 Don't they look modern? Colours still great.
From a trip to Dove Cottage. I was on my own there The guide said hardly anyone visits any more! Presume the Wordsworths are out of fashion 😮
