Broken Ring Link Between Royalty and Yankee Kin
In Cedarburg Wisconsin on March 7 a broken ring once worn by Mary Stuart queen of the Scots is held by Mrs Lucile Thompson who believes she is descended from the Stuarts. The ring carries 10 pearls and 12 garnets set in a worn band with initials barely legible. Mrs Thompson plans to pass the heirloom to her eldest daughter on her wedding day, preferring to keep it intact to prevent counterfeits.
