We have received an offprint of Jill Davies, 'Two Cousins, Two Significant Careers', The Carmarthenshire Antiquary XLVI (2010), 80-99, which discusses this family in relation to Violet Paget (Vernon Lee), Emilia Sophia Adams being the grandmother of both Alice Abadam, the suffragette, and Vernon Lee, the writer, the family thus being fluent in Italian. Her son, Edward Abadam, of Middleton Hall, Llanarthney, Carmarthenshire, Wales, arranged the burial and visited the grave. A still birth is recorded for a Lady Paget (likely Catholic) is also recorded as near Florence, Pall Mall Gazette and Morning Post, 28 June 1873, for whom there is no 'English' Cemetery documentation. Notes and Queries placed this tomb in Sector D.
