I thought it had a distinct vibe of the past. Superb.

This is Elizabeth (Betty) North (1910-1957), daughter of Morton M. Palmer (b.1875) and Alice L. Palmer (b.1889). Born Elizabeth Palmer, Betty was educated at the Low-Heywood School in Stamford, Connecticut. She married Richard N. Barnum, Jr. (1910-1979), son of Richard Nicholls Barnum (1876-1929) and Marian Hutchinson Cocks (b.1880), from Darien, CT. He was a 1934 graduate of Yale University. They divorced some years later. On November 18, 1946, in Sarasota, Florida, Elizabeth married Henry (Buddy) Ringling North (1909-1993) (born Henry Whitestone North), son of Harry Whitestone North (1858–1921) and Ida Loraina Wihelmina (Ringling) (1874–1950). He was a native of Chicago and a 1933 graduate of Yale. Henry was Vice President of Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus. Known as Buddy, he, with his older brother, John Ringling North (1903-1985), ran the circus from 1936 to 1967. Elizabeth divorced North in 1953. They had no children. Elizabeth died in 1957, at the age of 47. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Photograph by: Joseph Janney Steinmetz
