Haven't found any connection to the "posh" Barretts :) Not that he's done too much work on the trees - his Grandmother's side has the longest pedigree (she married beneath...) . Supposed to be a retirement project - haha!<br />Keep well xx<br />Gina-Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14640906981065529894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6019967611762651725.post-57586264223034433922020-08-31T12:51:58.776-07:002020-08-31T12:51:58.776-07:00That green silky braid is probably even nicer in p...That green silky braid is probably even nicer in person and the beads are indeed the perfect touch. I'll have to rootle around in my old coat buttons - it never occurred to me that the back cover could be dispensed with. Regarding the wiring up the chimney - what a hassle when you have to do repairs! Don't people do peculiar things to houses? Keep meaning to ask if the Barrett is cousin to Elizabeth? If so we are probably cousins since Grandfather Mark Clayton married Susan Barrett in 18 something or other - she was EBB's cousin. I've never prowled through family history too much but if another lifetime arrived might get well stuck in. Stay well.
