Thank God I have the seeing eye, that is to say, as I lie in bed I can walk step by step on the fells and rough land seeing every stone and flower and patch of bog and cotton pass where my old legs will never take me again.

82. POTTER, HELEN BEATRIX Potter, HELEN Beatrix. Mycologist, writer (1866 1943) She was the first child of Rupert and Helen Leech Potter, born July 28, 1866 in London, England. http://www.astr.ua.edu/4000WS/POTTER.html

POTTER, HELEN BEATRIX Mycologist, writer (1866 - 1943) She was the first child of Rupert and Helen Leech Potter, born July 28, 1866 in London, England. She is known today for her wonderful children's stories. Just about everyone is familiar with the tale of Peter Rabbit. During her later years she was widely respected throughout England as an expert on fungi, although the Royal Society did refuse to publish at least one of her technical papers. From many walks in the woods she amassed a set of detailed watercolors of fungi. The collection (some 270 completed by 1901) is in the Armitt Library, Ambleside, England. Around the time of her death in 1943 many of her notes, including her paper on spores, were burned during the bombing of London in WWII. She kept a private journal which wasn't published until 1966. The reason for this is that it was written in a code of her own invention. The code was broken by Leslie Linder, an engineer. Once the code was broken it took him seven years to decipher Beatrix Potter's journal. In the journal she details her attempts to have her theories and drawings noticed, usually to no avail. Perhaps if Beatrix Potter hadn't been so shy and if the male scientists at the Royal Botanical Gardens hadn't been so dismissive we would not have her legacy of Peter Rabbit.

She amused herself by painting, using specimens from the Natural History Museum or sketching the nature in the Lake District, where the family spent summer holidays. Potter had also pets, including rabbits. Her London home she lated described as "my unloved birthplace". Potter never went to school, but was taught at home by a governess. She learned to read from Sir Walter Scott's novels and Maria Edgeworth's works. As a young woman she still lived at her parent's house. From the age of fifteen until she was past thirty, she recorded her everyday life in her own secret code-writing.

Site Map Directory Web Design / Hosting Advertising ... Beatrix Potter FAMOUS PEOPLE - Beatrix Potter 1866 1943 BEATRIX POTTER was born in London in 1866 and lived until 1943. Her love of the countryside stemmed from her childhood holidays in the Lake District. In the 19th Century, there was no formal education for girls and Victorian values also forbid her to become a farmer. When Beatrix was young she had various animals as pets, which she made drawings of, whilst watching them. During the summer months she would go to Scotland with her parents for a 3 month holiday. When she was [16] they could not go to Scotland because the house they usually rented was not available. Therefore, her parents decided to go to the Lake District and stayed at Wray Castle near Ambleside. Beatrix became friends with the vicar, Cannon H. Rawnsley of Wray Church, who would later encourage Beatrix to publish her first book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit". Cannon H. Rawnsley would become one of the co-founders of the National Trust, in the hope of preserving the natural beauty of the Lake District.
