Okay! Thanks, Cynthia and Nellie! I just wish your posted picture and the one in the newspaper which I posted are both clearly enough to show what that tiara exactly would look like or maybe a square-like (and close-up) photo of just the Countess' head would pop up and would show the clear details in the tiara itself. But the camera of that time period simply did not have that ability yet. (and only in black and white, too).
I'd forgotten someone posted that picture of the tiara (with the plume) when the Anne tiara mystery was under discussion months ago. Thanks for re-posting that one again, Nellie.
P.S. whenever I look for genealogical data in that town's newspapers, I occasionally come across various royal pictures with captions or stories near them.
