The elder, who Soane's had high hopes of following in his footsteps, became a writer (!) and used his talent to write disparaging articles about his father. <br />I have a feeling (could be completely wrong) that neither boy lived past their 20's. <br />Thanks so much for commenting- and now I can't rest until I've checked what happened to his boys! <br />G xPippa Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10128414630918980034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2456802468539868519.post-10518330311377315402012-09-15T14:14:45.161-07:002012-09-15T14:14:45.161-07:00Sue, you are absolutely correct.
