Ah, the boring one. To be fair, Pamela seems to have been a decent person and a typical upper class woman of her time -- more intelligent and able than most. She was just born into a highly unusual family.

It is always interesting that sibling’s raised together can have such different personalities. I can definitely identify with Pamela’s love for animals. I have canceled many trips due to a sick or senior dog.

My grandmother was born in 1907 also, in Kent uk. And died age 83.

Thank you for this video, and thank you for researching the Mitford sisters one by one they certainly do merit their individual story being told. Again, your research and balanced narration of their lives is so much appreciated. Diana, Washington DC

The dark haired woman with Moseley is NOT Pamela but Cimmie, Moseley’s first wife, mother of Violet.

"efficient women with a masculine outlook" - JDraper recently read this description from a 1930s personality quiz - it's clearly how society described lesbians during that era 😄

When people like to say which Mitford sister they are most like, I say I am Pamela. I’m also the quiet one with good advice that no one takes.

Thank you--I'd never even heard of her

She seemed like a lovely person who cared for animals.

Good evening from Black Diamond Alberta, it never ceases to amaze me on the depth of your uploads.

Hello Forgotten Lives. Love your work.
Have you considered looking into female painters of past centuries? They’ve often been overlooked.
Of particular interest is an English painter ( and abolitionist) Emma Jones. It’s a fascinating life story.
