I hope you don’t mind me writing to you. I have been corresponding with Alison Watson Ewing to whom you replied on Ancestry.Com's noard in 2012 re Venita Varden/Frances Banks.
I am doing an article on Venita’s involvement with Afghan Hounds for a magazine, and I am particularly interested in the period between her divorce in 1944 to her death in 1948: where she lived, and if her involvement with the Afghan Hound breed continued during this period, and what happened to her dogs after the divorce.

Venita was somewhat of an icon in Afghan Hound breeding circles, and interest in her remains high to this day.

Any other information would be useful re her activities with the breed.

Regards
Patricia Egan
