LadyNoel's Gibbie Tribute Blog

Patty stumbled across the following cool site while researching whether or not Gibbie Folger was at the Monterey Pop Festival (she was).  She found a photo there of an article she pulled a few years back of Gibbie's debutante ball and was touched to see that LadyNoel gave Patty a photo credit. That's so nice! Patty has always thought that The Lady is a real class act. Thanks, girl.

Anywhoo, Patty would like to return the favor and plug LadyNoel's blog at http://abigailfolgertribute.blogspot.com/ where you can see the following cool photos of Abigail, and so much more:

  2. Looking at these photos is so sad, because this young lady was robbed of a life in the most brutal of ways. They should display these at parole hearings, so people don't forget the victims, and how they were real human beings, with their whole lives ahead of them.

  4. What a nice tribute Lady Noel has made to Abigail Folger. This site is going on my favorites list.

  5. Patty got an email from a person who has seen letters addressed to Abigail that were taken from Cielo drive. This person claims that the correct spelling of Abigail's nickname is Gibbie, not Gibby. Anyone else ever heard this??

  6. Yes, Patty. The correct spelling is "Gibbie". Bugliosi and Gentry got it wrong (as with many things) and it became the standard.

  7. Abigail Folger certainly seemed to be a very decent sort of person. She was also very attractive in that way that some brunettes seem to nail...a kind of effortless allure and glamour that they seem themselves unaware of, but that leaves the rest of us ever so slightly gobsmacked in their presence. Surrounded by any number of " California blondes" at the time her natural attractiveness would, ve seemed like a breath of fresh air to more than a few, I would imagine.

  8. This is cool Patty!
    And that colored picture of Abigail at the site is very nice, her red outfit and those big circle earrings. 60's chick.
    May i ask now why did you researched whether or not Abigail was at Monterey ? And how did you discovered she was?
    I would love to have been there, as most people on this blog, i suppose.

  10. It seems that a lot of the characters in our saga were there; Tex, Terry Melcher and John Phillips among others. Stoner's group on facebook was wondering how many familiar names we could place there. It was an interesting exercise.

  11. I didn't know Watson was at Monterey what is a source on that?

  12. Beauders, the source is a personal letter from Tex to a friend of Patty's. She just asked him for a photo of it, he says he will dig it up and send one. Please keep on me about this and she will keep on her friend. patty at mansonblog dot com

  13. Thank you for all the nice comments about the blog. You are mistaken though, LadyNoel is not the creator or author of the blog. I am (SJ formerly of HSForum)
    LN is a great friend of mine and has contributed several photos as have others, who are all credited (Including Patty)
    The research is all mine though.
