Leslie[edit]

A previous editor was correct: Leslie died long after Louisa, and not of suicide but of a heart attack. He was working as janitor/caretaker for a block of flats. "Gerald Durrell: The Authorized Biography" ISBN 0786707968, p. 512 in my Carroll & Graf paperback edition. Ben-w 05:42, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dixie?[edit]

Why is Louisa Florence Durrell given the (middle) name of Dixie!? I note the editor that changed the name of the article asks to be contacted on German Wikipedia and may be unaware of what he has done. This article should be re-named Louisa Durrell.

"She left India with her family under dire circumstances."[edit]

If they were dire (i.e. very bad) these circumstances should be (briefly) explained. Eddaido (talk) 14:01, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
