I've only just logged on today but seeing Chilston Park in GTP, can only say thankyou John Walker.
It was my late hubby's ancestral pile ( 4x Gt Grandmother born there Louisa Best. ) but and only because it's had the lovely history added , has anyone any idea of which family is shown in the large portrait on the beautiful staircase ?
Louisa's father was George Best and mother Caroline Scott. George died in 1819 .
We only visited once back in 2012 and only just to nip in and get the brochure they had. Never actually saw the portrait in person . I would love to know whether they are the Best family . Any help would be really appreciated. x
