Can anyone identify the author who penned this
birthday love poem, his initials being P G, or the lady whose name was
Mary. It is assumed to have been written in Great Britain, possibly in
Scotland, and from the handwriting style it would appear to date to the
Victorian period, but might be a little later. |

Can anyone identify the author of this
hand-written poem, which seems to have some connection to members of the
Bertram & Gray families. It is in a photo / scrapbook, which belonged to
the Hope family of Luffness, Haddingtonshire in Scotland. It has been
sandwiched between death notices to Sophia Nicolle (ms) Bertram and
Elie-Jean Bertram (Elizabeth Perrot), who both died in 1858, and
illustrations of members of the Gray family, including Edward George
Gray when he was in Paris. |
