Loading... Page 2 - Minnie Frost James 1977 Letter
Family letter by Aunt Min, Minnie Alexandra (Frost) James (1902-2004), c1977. Pages 2-5 survive; page 1 and the last page are missing. Summary of this page (2 Nov 2026):
Minnie Parker's mother's maiden name was MORGAN (Sarah Ann Morgan). She was said to descend from the old Princes of Wales and was proud of it; a forebear served under Nelson on the Victory, so that branch was called "the Victory Morgans". She had friends in landed and titled families but had married beneath her: they called in their carriages but had nothing to do with her husband Clement Parker, and dropped the family when she died in 1902. One of them, "Lady Lyons - or perhaps Lines", was godmother to Minnie. Most of this came from "Auntie Louisa, my mother's sister".
Records: Sarah Ann Parker's death is probably the one indexed Jul-Sep 1902, Axbridge (Weston-super-Mare), age 58. The noble connections are unsupported; her father was a collier.
