Some Very Interested Visitors stopped by the museum on Friday off of the Emerald Princess
Will and his fiancee, Joanne, came by the museum for a behind the scene tour. Will works with non-for-profits in the Los Angeles area and had come across the museum website while searching for things to do on their cruise. He contacted the museum to say he was very interested in what we were doing and wanted a closer look. Lucky for them, we were just completing the research on the Ft George buttons and they were intrigued by the clues that could be seen under the microscope. Will pointed out that he thinks the belt wrapping the RI in the Royal Irish button is a heraldry symbol used by infantry. It is possibly the symbol for brotherhood. Something new to research.
