Misc:
I received an email from Janet Faithfull with following content:
I have a gold Victorian mourning brooch containing a lock of hair which I purchased from a jeweller approx. 40 years ago. Beyond that I do not know where it originally came from.

The following is inscribed on the back of the brooch:

In memory of Lydia Maw
20th Jan 1842
At 82
