...and yes - Union spy, spinster Elizabeth Van Lew AKA "Crazy Bets", did actually live in her Church Hill mansion with her forty cats!

Well, at least she had the room for them! That's one of many places I wish had been left standing.

Janet ("Nettie") was Kate's younger half-sister. Nettie married William Sprague Hoyt, a relative of Kate's husband. The sisters later fell out over a lawsuit involving the Sprague estate.

Nettie was a talented artist who illustrated a couple of children's books.
