  • Notes 
    • Dear Johan
      I did notice the Maw family references too - you may not be aware that GEORGE MAW (1832-1912) also had a heather named after him (Erica ciliaris 'Mawiana') as well as quite a few other plants [he was an enthusiaistic amateru botanist - I see him described as a taxonomist on your tree which is certainly not his profession, even if it was his avocation in his spare time. But he was also an artist, praised by John Ruskin, no less.
      Looks as if there is a streak of botany and horticulture in your family tree!
      If you wanted I could scan his portrait and his heather for you.

      On the Doncasters, yes you could attach the email.
      This, by the way, is Samuel's signature (I don't have his portrait) from a copy of the Backhouses' heather catalogue (1911) in which the heather was named after his wife.

      Best regards

      Charles Nelson
