The Full Story
Heather Tweed has been researching and writing about Caroline Giacometti Prodgers, The Cabman's Nemesis since 2011
She Is The President of The Mrs Caroline Giacometti Prodgers Fan Club.
More details about Mrs Prodgers life will be released soon. Heather has visited many sites inhabited by this extraordinary woman, delved into online archives, collected books containing scant information (often only a passing sentence or two) and opened previously untouched documents in physical archives around the country.
Caroline Giacometti Prodgers was a troubled soul from a privileged background, her character shaped by family history and life events.
Heather wrote an early article about this extraordinary woman for The Public Domain Review.
As she discovered more about Mrs P's circumstances and background the more she came to understand and love this irascible, complex character.
In common with a number of biographers Caroline began to visit Heather almost palpably perching on her shoulder like a wise old bombazine owl.
As with all her subjects Heather firstly traced Carolines Family Tree and searched for documents related to her life. At that point many documents held in outside archives had not been added to family search websites and it was a slightly more painstaking task to ensure that each fact was correct.
