Princess Margaret Comes to Belize
![]() |
In May of 1958 (2 May through 6 May), in one of the empire's last
hurrahs, royalty visited Belize for the first time in the then colony's
history. It came in the form of the Queen's sister, a vibrant young
Princess Margaret, In this first photo the princess is shown descending the stairway at Government House to attend a state dinner hosted by the governor, Sir Colin Hardwick Thornley. The skirts of her "ladies in waiting" can be seen on the stairs behind her. |
