Changed Names - Unfinished Slippers





The names we were given, christened with or nicknamed  tell a story or two! Sometimes the shoe - or slipper fits - other times not. Here's two vox pops from two Morshead characters!

Maidie retraces the slipper steps of her  Grandmother  - via some embroidery - and talks about the Grandfather who 'renamed'  her 'Wee Maidie.'  http://www.archive.org/details/TheWeeMaidieGrandmasSlippersGrandpasSmokingCap .
While Peggy gives an account of her christened name and her parent's time in England:  http://www.archive.org/details/MercierAsChristianNameAustralia
