We have a cup commemorating Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee. Its a bit tatty and certainly would not attract the interest of the specialists on the Antiques Roadshow. The cup came from Aunt Ede, known by the family to have "married a blind man from St Dunstan's and being bombed out during the war". With other research having come to a grinding halt, I now had time to try and verify the family story.
From a priceless resource (a photocopy of two pages from my granddad's diary, listing his parents and all his siblings with dates of birth, and death of those who predeceased him) I knew that Aunt Ede was my dad's aunt and the fourth of 12 children born to Arthur James MILES and his wife Mary Ann (HUNTLEY). The diary told me that Edith Harriett MILES was born 11 March 1872.
