Could you refer me to where I might find further information on what you've written? As family, we've never known about some of these facts before. Wonderful comments from my cousin I'd like to share as well: "Fascinating article. I hadn’t known many details of either the purchase or sale of 50 Riverside, let alone some of the anecdotes about Albert and the war. WWI was devastating to Vitagraph’s film sales, a large portion of which were in Europe. So Albert’s joy at the armistice was not just unbridled patriotism. But patriotic he was, speaking at bond rallies. It was my understanding that it was Blackton more than Smith, however, who urged early US entry into the war and who was responsible for Battle Cry of Peace. More or less on his own initiative Blackton made the follow up film, Womanhood: The Glory of the Nation, which was far more hawkish and, being released days before Wilson’s war message, became wildly popular. Hazel was born in 1885, so was not 28 when she died, and Albert was born in 1874 not 1875."Michael O Smithhttp://www.doadoodle.comnoreply@blogger.com
