My husband's 2x great grandfather was a famous silversmith Charles Boyton, as was his father and his son. More importantly his aunt is the President of the British BeeKeepers Association and has no less than 3 Blue Peter badges WOW. His mother is also related to the Home family ( Sir Alec Douglas-Home- ex-Prime Minister) My daughters are so envious!! My only claim to fame was that I worked for lots of very famous people. I also had a boyfriend who was the film director son of the executive producer of 'Lolita and Dirty Dozen' to name but a few of his films. Louise |
