Tiffany/Duncan comment: |
Tiffany 1910 calls this the Wilson Memorial Window because Helen Louisa Hewson (Mrs. George P.) Wilson was chair of the committee raising the money for the window, and was likely the person who organised the window with the Tiffany company [TIFF1910, DUNC1980, AEJ1899, ATU1899, DEDUCED] |
