Description

Mounted studio portrait of a woman standing behind a chair. Photographer was T. C. Turner & Co. of Barnsbury Park, England. Negative or photo #49153. Handwritten in pencil on album page above and below: Was nursery governess to our dear Willie for 3 1/2 years from his 5th year to his 9th. When we returned from Austrailia in 1888 and took the house at Sussex Gardens near Dulwich College I took Jessie back as housekeeper. She was with me there ten years. In all those years I paid her 25 pounds a year and gave her all her clothes, dreses and all. Jessie Sommeborn [sp?] taken in 1893. [This almost certainly refers to the photo 1985.1.1u, not this photo.]
