I am a heritage guide and researcher at the Theatre Royal in Bury St Edmunds. I have been researching the de Winton sisters and their family and would love to communicate with you to find out more – and verify the information I have, perhaps adding to it. Dora de Winton has a link to the theatre and it would be splendid to add colour to the theatre history, as well as theatre of the time, by expanding on the de Winton story.

I would be very interested to get in touch with anyone who has further information on this family – as there is considerable discrepancy in the official records.

Please, please do anyone get in touch! Message me via Facebook – Julia Salmon, juliacsalmon@facebook.com.

A fascinating woman, years ahead of her time, who was educated at Haberdashers, New Cross. In later years she spent much time reading – a pile of books always by her side – and was clever at crochet, making an exquisite bedspread, tablecloths and mats. In her younger days it was not uncommon for her and her mother to cycle from London to Brighton. – Jacqueline Fahey

De Winton was a stage name not a married name.

]]> Comment on Alicia Ramsey Posts by David Mayer http://womenandsilentbritishcinema.wordpress.com/2007/10/27/alicia-ramsey-posts/#comment-1034 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 12:33:56 +0000 http://womenandsilentbritishcinema.wordpress.com/2007/10/27/alicia-ramsey-posts/#comment-1034 There is much that should be added to the Ramsey database, perhaps most importantly that she and Rudolph De Cordova scripted and may have performed in the first film actually shot during a theatrical performance. The BFI holds the print. This was The Bandits, a four-act spectacle staged at Hengler’s London Hippodrome in 1902. We don’t know who filmed this extract, but filming may have coincided with the Shah of Persia’s visit to the UK in August of that year. We know that the Shah attended a performance and that his other engagements were filmed both by Paul and Warwick.
