    My father's uncle, Adolphe Chapleau, was the Lieutenant Governor of Quebec in the late 1800s. My family has many pieces of silver tableware from the Chapleaus, and assorted pieces given to them ... one of the pieces is a gift from the countess and her husband. It's a pen and ink well set on a tray and is really beautifully made.
  • Steep Spark said:
    Wow...wonderful. I'm sure this image makes the set even more personal for you, and your family.

    She sailed to America from Queenstown [now Cobh] Ireland in December 1912, on the Celtic, which also carried Miss Violet Asquith, the daughter of British Prime Minister Herbert H. Asquith, for a visit to Washington, D. C. as a guest of the British Ambassador, Lord Bryce, and Mrs. Bryce. In 1912, the Countess of Aberdeen's husband was serving as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The photo of her probably was taken after her arrival in the U. S. Story in The New York Times, December 20, 1912: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9C04E1DA1E3AE6...
