Mom Gives Birth, Husband Gives Her Secret Box From Late Grandma

Beryl Hawkins

Britton was born in London, but a part of her family was born very far from the United Kingdom. One of such members was her grandmother, who “was christened with many names, but the one she chose to use was Beryl Hawkins.”

Britton defines Beryl as tough and independent, and states that she “would today be known as a proud feminist.”
