Have been pouring over your website for the last six hours and devouring all the information there is. I just ran across this note on the message board from "CORLISS
and was delightfully shocked to read it. It says … "The owner of the book is only addressed as "Mabel" - no last name. Please e-mail me if you would like further information."
It lists Mabel Lutyens and she is my Grandmother … she was a wealth of knowledge and lived to 97 years old; she was totally lucid and lived by herself, making apple pies and chocolate chip cookies every Saturday! {I also remember their friends, the Foy’s, whose name is listed among the friends.} As a matter of fact, I was privileged to be given her wedding ring by my father, which I never take off!
How might I get in touch with this “CORLISS?” What an exciting email to read!
