RE: Trivial Trivia - taking trivia to new levels
Well cheated, Laurie!
The Jeromes lived at 8 Amity Street (since renumbered as 197), Cobble Hill. She was a talented amateur pianist, and was tutored by a friend of Chopin, Stephen Heller. At the age of 20, she married Lord Randolph Churchill, the third son of John Winston Spencer-Churchill, 7th Duke of Marlborough, at the British Embassy in Paris. They became engaged within three days of their initial meeting! Laurie, you win the last volume of Winston Churchill's "A History of the English-Speaking Peoples". A full one-third of this volume ("The Great Democracies") was devoted to the American Civil War. |
