That's something else that  got lost in this enormous thread Carole :)

We're having trouble in extracting the facts.

Anyway, before I resign   :)     just realised that somewhere along the line we've started looking for a Doris E and we need a Dora E  :)
Best wishes HL

OOOPS big mistake on my part folks its Dora E not Doris E we are looking for. ::)

Just a tad confused at the moment, maybe Trystan can shed a bit of light on this for all of us.

No, I don't  think you need apologise Nettie. It's all getting so confusing and it's certainly not your fault. :)

Just to let everyone know, after chatting with Trystan about making contact with people and the stance we have here on RC, I have written to a possible living relative on the Baker side.

The address may not be current. If not we live in hope it will be forwarded on.

Well done Dawn and thanks for the update   :)

Fingers crossed you get a reply and the beautiful picture and bear find a home. It will be a shame if the bear's abandoned after a century of love and the picture is definitely one to be treasured and not thrown away.
Best wishes HL

Gosh, I didn't realise I'd missed so may posts. I thought nothing was happening. I have reading to catch up on!  :)

If a home is not found for bear, maybe he could choose a suitable museum to move into? Then he could accept visitors  :D
