When I put on a microfilm roll looking for some genealogical information relating to one of my distant cousins, I suddenly came across this picture of the Countess of Strathmore and Kinghorne and the caption below relating to her sudden death that would postpone the state visit to France of her daughter and son-in-law (Queen Elizabeth and King George VI) (which was supposed to take place on June 28th).
My question is: could the Countess' tiara be the same one as that of her great-granddaughter Princess Anne's mystery tiara (that was under the discussion some months ago)? I apologize in advance if someone already suggested this same possibility.
