A fascinating glimpse into victorian lives through these very spirited ladies memoirs.. Again not a ghostly video, But as I love history (as you have probably guessed by now !) I thought Id add a couple of these videos to my channel. I recorded them back in the 90's off the BBC and thought they were little gems.

Thanks a lot for uploading! What an amazing piece of history that is.... I am in my late 50s and I was lucky enough to know that kind of charming old ladies who were born in the 19th century.I just loved to listen to her stories of a far distant time... But how will my generation be like in that age? It is not only that we all have the same boaring life style of "modern times forever young girls" but I very much doubt that we will be as charming old ladies who have aged gracefully, looking like Miss Marple (not like a botoxed timeless plastic doll), loveable old grannies, with a wrinkled face and lively eyes, grey hear and oldfashioned style. Despite my gratitude that we meanwhile discuss the importance of a modern Silver Generation in our time - something went wrong... I miss the old grand ladies and gentlemen and their style and attitude. We are likely to end up as a foolish forever-young-teenanger generation if we do not go back to acting like matured grown up old and wise persons. That is the aim of evolution!

I did some research on the clip. It was filmed in 1969 for the BBC Program, Yesterday's Witness:Two Victorian Girls and was released in 1970. Berta Ruck went on to become a successful writer who authored some 90 romance novels and died in Northern Wales a few weeks after her hundredth birthday. Effie's full name was Frances E. Jones and was born in August of 1875 and according to the England and Wales death registry died in Hillingdon, London between January and March of 1975 at the age of 99. Berta Ruck (1878-1978) Frances "Effie" Jones (1875-1975)

1890 is considered Victorian but she was born in the Victorian era technically but Edward (Her son) took the throne when she died. She would have been around 10 years old when he did. Her teen years and young adulthood would have been in the Edwardian times on up. My great grandmother was born around the same time. I really consider her youth to be Edwardian. Now your great grandmother would have definitely lived in the Victorian era. I don’t know. It’s how you view it I guess. Your grandmother would have remembered just a tiny bit of the Victorian era. Titanic was Edwardian as well.

A story I can recall was when my French grandmother would casually stroll with her umbrella near the railroad tracks as the buggies would often pass. She would purposely twirl her parasol to catch the eye of one particular gentleman who was quite dashing and owned not one but three buggies quite a tidy sum of money in those days. Fast forward .... they were married six months later and lived in a lavish mansion with 11 servants, a butler and a footman. During the Depression era when money was scarce she went shopping for food and came home with not one bit of morsel just a large, solid statue of a peacock spreading its wings. I still have the statue which weighs about 30 pounds and truly it was her prized possession. She was unpredictable, vivacious and full of life and loved beautiful things especially peacocks!

My Great Grandad was born in 1888. He fought in the Great War and raised me till I was 4.He took me to the Market and the bank and then after for ice cream every week. My parents emigrated to Australia in 1967 . When he was dying,he wanted to see me one last time. He flew to Brisbane in 1970. He was scared to use the telephone,but loved the Aeroplane. He used to ride a Penny Farthing bike. I have a lot of his personal things. Rosary beads,prayer book ,tin from Queen Mary presented to the troops 1914. A small stool he made and some furniture. All of it tells me a story and makes me feel he is still around. I feel blessed. He taught me so much.🙏🏻❤️

I love these little gems. I might be born in the USA but my roots are very much British and European. We have even found some Viking roots. I am so very excited that I live in a time where we can record the very voice and image of the people who were truly there in the midst of such an amazing time in the world. It is interesting to me that KZfaq and Tick Tock and such will someday overwhelm future historians and anthropologists and that this will be even more profound in that future. We have more information at a personal level than any other era past. Amazing and powerful stuff.

A fascinating glimpse into one of Britain's most interesting eras. Part two is equally fascinating. I imagine no-one from Victoria's son's reign as Edward VII is alive now, or from his son's reign as George V, well very few from George's reign. But of course, there are many of Victoria's descendants across Europe from numerous royal families.

How is that profound or intelligent? It means very little more than we simply don't know. It's incorrect anyway because to assert that we do not know something implies there is a tangible reason for being 'put' on this earth, which there isn't.
