Naval Review, N.Y., 5/17/15 (LOC)

Rolls-Royce, but where? Ballyboggan, that's where!

April 5, 1910

    A root in the census shows two Edith Coles'eses in 1901, and none at all in 1911. One Edith was 1 month old in 1901, so that's not her.

    This one (a .pdf) was only eight, so would be 17 in 1910. CofE, born in Cornwall, living in Cove, near Kinsale in 1901. Her Dad was gone in 1911, too, maybe they moved back to England.

    So is this that Edith? Or is it some furriner actress who was just visiting?

    This is only eBay, so not a permanent link, but it's a postcard of Edith Coles "The Worst Woman in London".

    Niall McAuley I was thinking furriner, but maybe not. And wow, wonder if that was a character assessment, or was it a character she played in the theatre... Added it as a tag either way.

    From Memories of Show Business by Percy G Court, 1953:

    Miss Edith Cole had her usual benefit on Friday night of each visit - ah -hem "The Still Alarm" with its two white horses which harnessed themselves to the engine and drove off the stage with fire bells clanging.

    A playbill from Leeds, 1909:

    Monday, 17th May, 1909. This evening's entertainment consists of the 'special engagement of W.W. Kelly's London Company, including the celebrated actress Miss Edith Coles, in the most successful historical play of the century' called, 'A Royal Divorce', by W.G. Wills.

    So, if she was a headliner in 1909, I don't think she was our Kinsale girl, she'd only be 16 in 1909.
