    : When I looked closely with my eyes at the
    : picture of Lady Fermoy (with her husband and
    : two daughters) and of Frances on the day of
    : her wedding to then-Viscount Althorp in my
    : magazines, I could see the tiara worn by
    : Lady Fermoy and by Frances appear to be one
    : and the same tiara. Since Frances was in the
    : picture with Lady Fermoy and the others when
    : she was at the time not married to Viscount
    : Althorp, I decided that Lady Fermoy's tiara
    : has to be the Fermoy family tiara. Lady
    : Fermoy was not born in a noble family while
    : her husband, the 4th Baron Fermoy, did;
    : therefore, the tiara has to be from his
    : father's family. His mother was then Frances
    : (Work) Burke Roche, an American citizen.
    :
    : Thus, my conclusion from this is the fact
    : that the tiara is Fermoy family tiara. I
    : would very much like to see a picture that
    : shows whether Frances' sister (shown in the
    : family photo) did wear this same tiara when
    : she herself got married. Ditto for Frances'
    : sister-in-law who married her brother, the
    : 5th Baron Fermoy.

    : Here is a pic of the Fermoys at an coming
    : out
    : ball in 1953. I think that Lady Fermoy might
    : be wearing the same tiara as Lady Frances at
    : her wedding. Though af course the photo is
    : not detailed enough to be really sure.
