Mrs Annabel Dott & the Goathland Homes for Officers: correction

I've just amended a couple of posts in the fascinating story of the redoubtable Mrs Annabel Dott – the series of blogposts that make up the account of her life and work begin here – on hearing from a member of the Dott family. 

I had used a photograph of a pleasant-looking lady which was believed by some members of the family to show Annabel Dott, but it doesn't – it's definitely a photo of a Mrs Crebin.

My contact says of Annabel, "My feeling is that she would look a bit more fierce than Mrs. Crebin does" and I must say that I agree!

I'm still hopeful that one day a photograph of Annabel Dott will turn up ...
