The legacy of Francis Harvey in Dorset and how his donation of land to a church in Dorset impacted for the next 100 years. Plus, how Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna - sister to the last Tsar - ended up in Canada.
This week, Kate continues the story of the legacy of Francis Harvey, his land donation on which Dorset's St Mary Magdelene Church was built, and how it contributed to the community for over the next 100 years. Dorset is about 3 hours north of Toronto in the Haliburton Highlands. Plus Paul talks about the last Grand Duchess of Russia - Olga Alexandrovna, who was sister to the last Tsar; how she escaped the Revolution and ended up in Canada; and where she lived her last days. A true Cinderella story in reverse.
