Denise, just read your comment from last year, i.e., "'Elizabeth Sanders was the niece of the British Admiralty'? How lucrative it must have been to have a thousand uncles.
Seriously though, a most interesting article, Bill, and well done on the research. I'm currently researching 'British agent 72', aka Benjamin Franklin and his fellow American double agent Edward Bancroft, both members of the debauched Buckinghamshire-based 'Hellfire Club'. It's an interesting period in Anglo-American history. Incidentally, James Jesus Angleton (of later CIA fame) was educated here in Buckinghamshire. This county has long been a spies' paradise."
Fascinating focus! We certainly miss your contributions to our community. What are you working on these days?
