William Cross, FSA Scot, writes about scandalous aristocratic woman, stately homes and the aristocratic families that live in them. He describes how this interest developed and reveals his methods of research which have taken him to prestigious archives, notably the Vatican Secret Archives, the Rothschild Family Archives and the Royal Archives at Windsor Castle.
In an illustrated talk the Society author William Cross will include amusing tales from his biographies of the flapper of flappers Hon. Lois Sturt, Lord Tredegar's daughter and drug fiend Hon. Gwyneth Morgan and the girl who was almost Queen of Britain, Lady Rosemary Leveson Gower and many, many others.
