Hello Bob, Linda, Sandy, David

The Cecil Higgins museum's website has some good info as follows

http://www.cecilhigginsartgallery.org/lace/social.htm

That museum is currently closed having a refit - but the next door Bedford Museum is open & in 2002 had an exhibition featuring my great grandfather's brother's wife.
