Hello Helen
I don't know of anyone who has seen a Dazeley bobbin.
My ancestors also lived in Wrestlingworth. My several greats grandmother (a
lacemaker) would have been around at the time ;o(
Diana in Northants where its been a beautiful sunny day - could summer be
here at last!!

With all this talk about hanging bobbins, has anyone ever come across one
for Sarah Dazeley? It is mentioned in the Springett's book 'Success to
the Lace Pillow' but they say they had never seen one themselves so
couldn't confirm its existence. This is the one I would be interested in
as Sarah did her fell deed, of killing her second husband, in the village
I was brought up in (Wrestlingworth in Bedfordshire - don't worry, people
living 7 miles away had never heard of it either!) If anyone knows
anything about this bobbin I would be interested to hear from them.
Thanks in anticipation,
Helen (now in sunny and hot Vancouver, BC on the west coast of mainland
Canada)
