... and bang would go the "Lynn Minmay" joke.
Anyway, this is good to know (though it does not agree in all particulars with my primary reference; then again, my primary reference is a web page about Jane Austen novels :) - in this context it's not necessarily telling. The point of this list was to show people who's in the thing, and in that context, the "Mayminster" thing was kind of important.

This is my mistake, not in Lisa's listing itself, but in the mention of her father the grumpy admiral. He's supposed to be a baron. (What was in the file when it was posted was an artifact of an earlier version that I forgot to fix.)
