This would also make her a contemporary
of Mary O'Hara,
who is due to turn 90 years old next year.

I believe Ms. Watkins was one of that generation of harpists
who learned the harp in a convent school from nuns.
As such she would merit mention on an old Mudcat thread
about "the dear spinning Eileens."
RIP.
