63. Karon Tells A Grandmother's Story In "Miss Fannie" _ Miss Wanda tries to mind because Miss Fannie is her mama, Karon writes. _Meanwhile, Karon is writing the secondto-last Mitford novel. http://www.baptiststandard.com/2003/4_14/pages/missfannie.html

April 14, 2003 Karon tells a grandmother' story in 'Miss Fannie' By Cecile Holmes Religion News Service WASHINGTON (RNS)Thinking back, award-winning author Jan Karon revels in recalling her grandmother's stories. "I loved hearing about her life and how people used to live," Karon said in explaining a special children's Easter book she has written to celebrate the generosity of spirit Christians seek to embody during the Easter season. "I loved hearing about her many beaus and suitors and her five proposals of marriage," Karon said of her grandmother. "What it was like to go to school. What they wore. What they ate. ... I learned a lot from her, but most of all, I learned to love stories." When "Mama"as Karon called herdied at age 100, her granddaughter wanted to honor her and her legacy with a special book. The result is the engaging children's story "Miss Fannie's Hat," first published in 1998 and now reissued for Easter by Augsburg Books. The special edition, appealing to both girls and boys, includes a CD of the author reading the story and talking about the real Miss Fannie. Karon, creator of the well-known Mitford book series about a villag

64. Books: True Calling (Metro Pulse . 02-16-98) Jan Karon, author of the bestselling Mitford novels, describes her unlikely Miss Fannie s Hat (Augsburg Fortress Press) is based on the life of her http://weeklywire.com/ww/02-16-98/knox_gamut.html

True Calling By Tracy Jones There are dozens of books that promise to deliver a formula for a best-selling novel. Jan Karon didn't follow the advice in any of them. Create larger-than-life characters. Nope. She built her first novel, At Home in Mitford , around an aging Episcopal priest and his decidedly provincial parishioners. Give readers exotic settings. Again, no. Instead, Karon gave them four novels set in the imaginary hamlet of Mitford, a town of about 1,000, a quiet place with tree-lined streets, mom and pop businesses, and plenty of opportunities for gossip. Construct gripping, spiraling sequences of events. In books where the central character's dilemma might be whether or not to return a casserole dish to the little old lady who's been winking at him from the pews, plot twists aren't the main attraction. Why then, have readers placed Jan Karon's four novels about Mitford on bestseller lists across the country? And why are they clamoring for more? Has something in Karon's work unexpectedly resonated with readers? "Honey, has it ever," Karon says. This despite the fact that Father Tim, the main character in the Mitford series, is, as his author describes him, "more than middle-aged."

"Mary Russel Mitford." Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine 75.464 (Jun. 1854): 663. Excerpt. So often quoted, and so universally known, it would be useless to multiply examples of Miss Mitford's peculiar power. There are few more successful landscape-painters-and with her minute pencil and fairy colours there is no pre-Raphaelite brother that will "do" you a sunny bank of flowers or bit of entangled foliage with equal truth, or observation as skilled. Miss Mitford's grass does not bristle in individual blades, but mantles like close-piled velvet; and her delicate wild-flowers are not lying all abroad, but peeping, half-discerned and half invisible, from the rich verdure round them, with all the shy and blushing modesty of nature, all unaware that it is sitting for its portrait.

Radix : So you’ve just finished the eighth Mitford book, Shepherds Abiding? Karon : Yes, the next to the last. And the last is to be Light from Heaven in 2005. Radix : Do you think your more recent books are the best of the lot? You’ve talked about learning to write. Are you getting better at it? Karon : In some ways. Some people say the first book is their favorite. It’s like your first love affair, your first sweetheart, your first kiss. I mean it’s hard to top your first kiss. But, I guess In This Mountain would be my favorite, because it was such a struggle, a book of struggle, and I was undergoing some deep struggle. Radix : Out of Canaan and In This Mountain are deeper somehow, it seems to me. Morris Love is a most complicated and dramatic character in Canaan and Uncle Billy’s eulogy chapter in Mountain is my favorite bit in all of your books. Karon : I really love Uncle Billy, and in Shepherds Abiding, I spent a lot of time with him. I think he’s a wonderful guy.

These playlets were adapted by director Lynn Steveson of Union County from two of Karon's books: Miss Fannie's Hat , the children's book by Karon, and At Home in Mitford , one of the Mitford series books. A host of Union County residents of all ages demonstrated their great variety of talents, enthusiasm, and dedication to present four performances of Scenes From Mitford and three of Miss Fannie's Hat . Local hat collectors displayed their collections of old and interesting hats to complement the theme of Miss Fannie's Hat . The public gave wonderful support by filling the seats for nearly every performance. All but one performance of these playlets was performed at the Stinson Library in Anna.

76. THREE MILE CROSS In Miss Mitford s time, Three Mile Cross was separated from Reading and otherneighbouring Miss Mitford’s writings recorded her first sighting of them, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~villages/berks/three_mile_cross.htm

OAS_AD('Top'); THREE MILE CROSS Mary Russel Mitford moved to Three Mile Cross with her parents on 5th April 1820. She described the village in her writings, thus: " A long, straggling, winding street, at the bottom of a fine eminence, with a road through it, always abounding in carts, horsemen, and carriages, and lately enlivened by a stage-coach ." The road through the village remained busy and its fate was sealed that it would continue so when the late 20th century motorway skirted the area. The shift to Three Mile Cross was not a joyous occasion for Mary, aged 32. The family was forced to leave Bertram House at Grazely because of financial woes due to her father's bad gambling habits. In the evening after leaving Grazely, she wrote in her diary " went to live in Mr. Body's cottage at The Cross. Very sorry to go. In a great skirmish all day long. Very uncomfortable indeed. " The modest cottage remained the family home and Mary herself lived there for a further 9 years until she moved closer to her long time friend Lady Russell at nearby Swallowfield for the last few years of her life. If it had not been for Dr. Mitford's extravagance and gambling passion, Three Mile Cross would probably not have become one of the most famous villages recorded. Mary had always kept a diary but it was not until she took responsibility for supporting her parents that she started producing the delightful works for which she gained fame.

Neither is there information on this periodical in Alvin Sullivan's British Literary Magazines Below is the review from the New Monthly Magazine for 10 October, 1818. Note: Though this review purports to describe "Johnny Newcome in the Navy," the poem described sounds more like "The Adventures of a Post Captain," which has been attributed to "Alfred Thornton," leading me to believe that "Alfred Thornton" may have been a pen-name used by Mitford. It should also be noted that though the review attributes the poem to John Mitford, the poem was published under the name "Alfred Burton." Johnny Newcome in the Navy, a Poem

Its residents are mostly decent, neighborly types whose lives are framed by the beauty and weather of the changing seasons and the recurrence of annual events. They care for one another, have little to do with the outside world, and resist change. Looking down from a hill on the town he loves, Father Timothy Kavanagh, the rector of Mitford's Episcopal Church, sees "a wide panorama of rich Flemish colors under a perfectly blue and cloudless sky," with ploughed farmland "like velveteen scraps on a quilt, feather-stitched with hedgerows." He calls it the Land of Counterpane.
