angelabingaman: Thinking about how I wanted to name my children after flowers (Chrysanthemum, Hyacinth, Hydrangea) before the time I discovered Charlotte Bronte.
coeurdelalionne: The Reverend David Pryce lies buried in that church yard in our town. They say that he never recovered from Charlotte Brontë's refusal of marriage.
But it seems more that one never recovers once a Lancashire town takes hold of you.
Both of these statements are likely true.
