Elizabeth Robins Diary Podcast

The Snows of Snow Hill


Listen Later

Before the Robins christened their property Chinsegut, the Snow family had dubbed it Snow Hill. Charlotte Ederington Snow, the oldest child of the Ederington family who had first built the manor house, grew up there and then raised her seven children on the Hill. Even once the Snows sold the manor and bulk of the property to Elizabeth, they continued to own property right next to it and were pivotal in the Robins' renovation and restoration efforts. This double-length episode features two of Charlotte's descendants who provide insight into the still influential Snow family. The cover image was taken by Elizabeth in 1906 and features Ernest Snow on the left and his brother Mallory in the middle.
