A Wonderful Donation

A few years ago, the Museum was visited by Anne Lindsay, from Dumfries in Scotland. She has given us a large collection of items related to the wedding of Ernest Edward Price & Madeline Sheila Luther, who married in Leominster almost 100 years ago, in September 1922.  The collection includes Sheila’s wedding dress, headdress & shoes, as well as another beautiful black dress, petticoats, pieces of lace, note books, and her sewing basket.

We also received Ernest & Sheila’s marriage certificate and other papers. It was very special to be given a donation of this kind with the documents that put it into context and help to tell the story behind it.
