Poor old blog. It's been completely ignored for a couple of months now. This, of course, is a reflection of the fact that I haven't done any work on family research in this time.
I was just sitting here at my desk and looking at the pin my mother gave me a few weeks ago, and I suddenly thought I'd blow the metaphorical dust off the blog and add another page today.
Apparently, my great-aunt belonged to the Primrose League, which (so the story goes) was a sort of health and social club for young women. I have been looking it up, and it is actually a Conservative Party association, founded in honor of Benjamin Disraeli in 1883. If you knew my fabulously ebullient great aunt, it would seem quite odd that she would be marching about in her leisure time espousing imperialistic ideas and Conservative Party principals. But we have all done things in our youth that we would never consider doing as an adult.
Tra-laaaa...
This is more likely to be something we'd imagine her doing.
