    • 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:
