July 4th, 1862

In 1862, English mathematician and clergyman Charles L. Dodgson ("Lewis Carroll") began devising the story of "Alice in Wonderland" for his young friend Alice Pleasance Liddell during a boating trip. Related:

That's so cool...

My birth name was Alice Jane (named after my mother and grandmother so I could find them easier should I ever look..And I did.. And I found them...

My birth mother carried an Alice In Wonderland Madame Alexander doll from NY to CA when she was 8.

I hope the story of Alice and Lewis never fade.

All Good Things,
-Alice
