This might help.then again it might not be the breton sisters you mean.these relate to wales.is the breton sisters a place??

In 1903, five Breton Sisters arrived in Aberystwyth and lived in temporary accommodation.  They spoke no Welsh or English but they received a very warm welcome and generous support from townspeople.  In a matter of just a few weeks they were able to buy a large house for themselves.  These Breton Sisters � called �White Sisters� at the time � felt very much at home in Wales.  They earned enough money to support themselves by teaching French and needlecraft.

From 1921 to 1995 they lived in what many locals still call �the Convent� (the former Anglican vicarage of St. Michael�s) and were involved in running a school there (now Ysgol Padarn Sant) until 1985

Hi! Well the answer I'm looking for is for a small quiz. First I had to unscrambled these letters: OBRENT RSSSETI (which I made Breton Sisters) and the answer is either of people, places or famous locations associated with either Lincolnshire or Yorkshire.  I confess - I'm stumped!
Bronte sisters?
