A Stay at Palm Beach, with the Jell-O Queen

12 May

One of Errol’s first visits to Palm Beach:

Visiting with Lili at Southwood, the Palm Beach Cottage of Eleanore Emily Woodward Vietor, Jell-O Heiress.

… I wonder what they had for dessert? You can never have enough Jell-O royalties.

And here’s an interesting twist, Mrs. Vietor, the Jell-O heiress, later appears to have become Mrs. Cernadas, apparently related in some way to Freddie McEvoy’s daughter/Charles Wrightman’s granddaughter. Alfredo Cernados is a ranch baron from Argentina, who lived in Palm Beach and Gstadd, Switzerland. Haven’t put all the pieces together yet. This is in shangheinz territory!

Well Tim-O, all I know, is that Fred the Mack did brittle business with Alberto Dodero, the Argentinian ship magnate. Errol would follow on the Peron path later on.

That is a top foto, Telescope Tim! The axis of Fred and greedy greeks spans from Switzerland to the South of France.
