“Winifred Wagner was of Welsh descent. Born Winifred Marjorie Williams in Hastings, England, she was the daughter of John Williams, a Welsh journalist and critic from Brecon, and his English-Danish wife.
Orphaned before the age of two, she was adopted at age ten by distant German relatives and moved to Germany. She later married Siegfried Wagner—the son of composer Richard Wagner—and became a prominent figure in the Bayreuth Festival and a devoted personal friend of Adolf Hitler.” [Source: Google AI]
