Linda and the Cows in 1993 in Wiltshire -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #924

 This is a priceless (to me) image in my computer file folders from the Seaver family collection:


This photograph was taken by me of my wife, Linda, as we toured England in the summer of 1993. This scene is in Ashton Keynes, Wiltshire, where we stayed in a 17th century manor house of the Richmond family. I have Richmond/Richman ancestry from Wiltshire -- my great-grandfather was Thomas Richmond (1848-1917) who migrated to America in 1856 with his family from Hilperton, Wiltshire. In 1993, I did not know if the Ashton Keynes Richmonds were in my ancestry, but I jumped at the chance to stay at a Richmond manor house and learn about the family and the area.

Linda and I walked along a country road and came to this stone wall, and I wanted a photograph of Linda with the cows.  The cows gathered together and seemed very interested in what we were doing.  Perhaps they like having their picture taken?

This event is part of my family history!!
