Graham of Edmond Castle

This photo of this box, and the two cards, was sent to me in 2017 by Fiona Roberton, a Graham descendant. It is a netting box with two bone or ivory containers. In Fiona's own words "The netting box( possibly a wedding present) I mentioned goes back to Mary Barrett so I include a pic with the calling card. The bone or ? Ivory containers are for gold and silver thread. I believe Mary and Ida are Mary, Lady Conyers, and her sister, Francis Mary Ida, daughters of Reginald Curteis, Herbert Barrett Curteis' brother. 40 Eaton Place was quite a posh address and Sysonby Lodge Melton Mowbray all still exist."
