G+. ** Irene Marion Ethel Foord-Kelcey (née Payne) was born in 1887, the youngest of three sisters. Her family were affluent wine merchants whose business was based in St James's Street, London. Her grandfather, William Payne, was a member of the Royal Household - Gentleman of Her Majesty's and the Prince of Wales's Wines Cellars. In the early years of her childhood her father, Alexander Payne, was declared bankrupt when the Prince of Wales failed to pay back a loan he had underwritten. Alexander spent the rest of his life trying, with little success, to turn his energy and enterprise into money. Irene was educated at St Catherine's Bramley, a recently founded boarding school for girls in Guildford. The school offered the girls "an education of sound and liberal character, including such useful accomplishments as may seem fitting." After leaving school she moved to Cornwall, where her father was trying his hand at tin mining, and attended the art school in Newlyn established in 1899 by Stanhope Forbes. She began writing and illustrating children's books, and had several published under the name, Irene Payne, using her trademark signature, IMP, on the illustrations. Published titles included Baby Bunting and Co (1905), Burbling Billy and the Bubble Bee and What Happened to Hannah."(foordkelcey).
