Talk:Mona von Bismarck

Laura and Harrison Williams
''In 1926, Mona opened a New York dress shop with her friend Laura Merriam Curtis... At the time, Laura was previously engaged to Harrison Williams, said to be the richest man in America...''
 * Do you mean she was currently engaged to Harrison, or that she had previously been engaged to him? Valetude (talk) 12:05, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Title?
If her husband had the title 'Graf (Count) von Bismarck-Schönhausen', then she would have had the equivalent title, the German for 'countess'. Did she prefer not to use this? Valetude (talk) 12:14, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Under section "Marriages" in reference to statement "During the marriage, Mona bore a son, Robert Henry, whom she left in the custody of Schlesinger in exchange for half a million dollars when they divorced in 1920. " I am curating a show on Mona and have read her complete divorce settlement from Schlessinger. It does NOT say she left her son in the custody of Schlessinger in exchange for half a million dollars BUT clearly states the child (a son) is to be left in care of his father because of his sex. The divorce settlement does not specify the $$ amount of Mona's alimony. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linus wibble (talk • contribs) 19:39, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
