I had an Aunt Jerry.  Her full name was Geraldine Amarilla.  Can't get 
much more Victorian than that!  She was born in 1901, the year Queen 
Victoria died.  I'm sure she at least LISTENED to 78s.

My grandfather was Columbus.  Really.  Columbus Edward Johns.  He died 
several years before I was born, but I've heard relatives refer to him a 
Clum.  Hmmm.   Sadly, I have no evidence that he ever made any 78s, but 
he might have sold them in his hardware store.  (Struggling to keep this 
on topic.)
