Anne Lister Italia latest article
But what exactly did Anne Lister and Ann Walker look like? We know it from their passport, the one with which they travelled on their honeymoon in 1834. Unfortunately, we have no portraits of Ann Walker so far, and all we know about her comes from Anne's journals. Of Anne, there are at least those few portraits that have survived (the most famous being the posthumous one hanging in Shibden Hall) and the more 'heartfelt' description by Edward O'Ferrall in his letter. You can find more about the identikit of Anne and Ann on our website, in the article that examines the entire passport. You can also find the link to the article on Edward O'Ferrall's letter in bio.

ANNE LISTER & ANN WALKER'S PASSPORT 🇬🇧🇫🇷🇨🇭🇮🇹
In 1834, like today, you needed a passport to travel abroad. In this new article by Francesca Raia you can read everything about the passport issued to Anne Lister and Ann Walker when they went on their honeymoon in 1834. We've examined this document at the West Yorkshire Archive and have found many interesting details, including a closer look to both our ladies(!) like the various stamps from France, Switzerland and... of course a bit of Italy (then Kingdom of Sardinia). The article also includes links to the travelmaps.

Ann Walker's Giving
While Ann Walker was away in the Russian Empire over the winters of 1839 and 1840 she wrote back three times to England to David Booth to give instructions on what to give to her tenants/people she knew. This blog looks at Ann Walker’s giving in these letters and discusses what they contain. Note the bolded names in the letters have been done so by the author to emphasise that there is more…

MARIANA LAWTON “Seriously, you asked her to marry you? To - (she whispers, even though there’s no real need to) To exchange rings? And alter wills? And move in?” ANNE LISTER “Yes. Well.
