<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jivvy, post: 854136, member: 8184&quot;]I don&#039;t understand people. AT ALL. How can they not be thrilled and spending all of their time researching it?!!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie99" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie76" alt=":pompous:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, then we would have nothing to do. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie58" alt=":joyful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I am absolutely SICK that I didn&#039;t start researching immediately. I wouldn&#039;t have bid on it, but would have been THRILLED to pass the info on to you.&nbsp; It was so easy to find the first bits.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You are not wrong.&nbsp; But I have put &quot;Mary Ann Nichols&quot; and her &quot;painted cameos&quot; together in one article, so we&#039;re stuck with her. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think she is adamantly &quot;MISS&quot; everywhere because her mother, Mary Ann Nichols, also painted. But that&#039;s a theory not yet confirmed (I have a Mrs. Mary Ann Nichols painting reference, but I have yet to pin down Miss in the census records, so I&#039;m not 100% on who her mother is).</p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;Society of Female Artists&quot; put together a show in 1857 and there were two cameo pieces by Miss Nichols in it.&nbsp; The show seems a bit tossed together and I want to assume she was alive at the time, but I cannot confirm it.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /> <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=HbVFAQAAMAAJ" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://books.google.com/books?id=HbVFAQAAMAAJ" rel="nofollow">https://books.google.com/books?id=HbVFAQAAMAAJ</a>&nbsp; (search on &quot;nichols&quot;)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
