Notes From Elsewhere

daughter of the Irish Land Commissioner

Another prominent female donor and driver behind the purchase fund was Charlotte Hussey. Miss Hussey was later a resident in Palestine who oversaw the tomb, and as late as 1923 she was making discoveries in the grounds of the tomb. She also edited Arthur Crawley-Boevey’s book on the tomb, Golgotha, which was published in the same decade.
In Jerusalem, Charlotte Hussey and Reverend William F. Connor dismissed the local caretaker,
Khaled, and appointed a ‘Danish couple’, the Beckholts. [THE PROTESTANT GARDEN TOMB IN JERUSALEM,
