<p>Upon her death, the royalties from Beatrix Potter's books went first to her husband, Willie Heelis, then upon his death to her publisher Frederick Warne & Co.. In 1983 the publishing company was acquired by Penguin Books, and I'm assuming her royalties were part of that acquisition.

It's rather sad that she didn't bequeath the royalties to the National Trust like she did her properties, but I suppose she felt a certain indebtedness to her publishing company of some 40 years.<p>
