Dear David and all,

 

I have been in contact with Rhona, Frank Newborn's daughter. She and her
mother have been delighted to hear how his work is valued by lacemakers and
tatters. But she told me that she never made bobbins. Her contribution was
to advise her father about lace and to test his bobbins. So the RKN in the
silver mark on my silver bobbins does not refer to her, and I am no nearer
knowing who made them. But it was very nice to receive her delightful
letter.
