In the early 1900s, our cast of characters includes the fancy Florence of New York, a famous Canadian psychiatrist named Lucy, Laurie the Roman missionary, Ethel with her many memoirs, Annie the quiet Illinois pioneer, Ruth the fourteen-year-old mother, Gertrude the fun Brooklyn girl with big hats, and Alice the unpopular second wife on a dairy farm. #victorian #edwardian #ancestry #family #memoirs #missionaries #brooklyn #grandmothers
