I have e-mailed the trust with GS's detective work and will add the response once received.

If only I could send GS a gold star & a big hug

I am so pleased we've solved that one - I really like his work, and was happy to play a part in identifying the signature.  Virtual gold star and big hugs all round!   :)

I now have a photo of the drawing. I also found out this morning that her father was the Ambassador in Paris in the 1920's. It looks like it was done in charcoal when Mary was between 10 & 12.

The trust was very excited with the news and has asked me to thank everyone on their behalf.

I agree and would happily have it on a wall at home - I just enjoy looking at it
