Firstly, a particularly good group of views by Francis Bedford. Many with Catherall & Pritchard lists on the back and some with Wm Pritchard, Stationer, High Street, Carnarvon, labels. They should be in numerical order. I have only included titles where they are not visible. Any problems with condition I will mention, otherwise as clean as I have ever seen views.

'St Saviour's Church, Jersey. Harriet Sofia Hadow died
Sept. 6th 1861 & is buried in a new part of the churchyard'. She may
be, but was sadly forgotten. until I resurrected her One resident of this
churchyard who isn't forgotten is Lily Langtree (Jersey Lily)! However,
in the interests of research, I did the work to find Harriet. She was born
on 7 October 1827 and died on 5 September 1861 (aged 33). Several of these
views are of Warwickshire and she was the eldest daughter of (presumably
a rector) from that county. Click HERE
for an image of Harriet's grave. If I got paid by the hour, I'm getting
about 3 cents.
