Dwin Bramall:
She lived in the country, with a terrible companion.
Alan Ray-Jones:
She lived in the country somewhere - perhaps in Sussex - and had a wonderful soft-fruit garden. I went to see her with my mother and brother when very young and I can still remember the rasberries and the hum of the bees on a summer's day. Most impressive and alarming though was her ear trumpet, which was an enormous affair into which you had to speak LOUDLY.
Philip Ray-Jones:
She lived at Buxted, Sussex. I had to stay with her aged about five, when my mother and Alan went to La Rochelle to the house of Madame La Botte. I hated it. She had nasty yapping Pekinese dogs which snapped at me. She stayed with Dan once at South Villa and I stepped on the Peke on the stairs which gave both of us a terrible shock. I had a miserable time in Buxted - the windows were never open.
Effie Ray-Jones:
"She lived in Florence, Italy with Aunt Florrie (Florance Steward) and her three daughters, for years - also in Germany for eight years, in Heidelburg" NB: See also note on Gualtiero Burlamacchi - that Mary Westby acted as his nanny.
