Just a few to get so that I can post it.

Answers are people real or imaginary who have given their name to an item of food or drink.

10. Immortalised as a criminal in Macheath's gang. 4,7, 3,6,4,2,8
I think I found this one on AB - but is 3 "the" and 6 "fourth"?

23. A French missionary who helped to run an orphanage in Algeria. 4,7,6
I have the 7 & 6, but not the 4

29. A high-class hooker well known for plying her trade around the court of Napoleon III 4,8

30. Founded a library for the blind in Florence in 1892. 5,10,2,5

33. A washerwoman who gave some seeds to James and helped to make his fortune. 9,7
I got an answer but it doesn't match the letter count

38. A Monument to him gives its name to a metro station on the Tyne and Wear Metro. 7,4,3,4,4

50.Represented in paintings dressed as a pilgrim with staff, gourd and scallop-shell. 5,5,3,7

Thnaks Scorpiojo.

For 33. I got Oseola McCarty, but as I said that doesn't fit the letter count.

Any help with 10, 23, 33 appreciated.
23 I can't find the 4.
Question Author
So I had the wrong washerwoman.

For 4 - I was wondering if it is a type and its his real first name which is 5 letters, or even his hyphenated name - again thats 5 letters.
Question Author
Thats who I've got for 10 but to fit the letter count it would have to be

"the fourth"

That would tie in with the style of Q3, but not with 38 & 44, 56 which are "2nd" "7th"
Is it worth contacting the setter to ask if there are any corrections?
23 pere clement rodier

I was looking for abbreviations of Father - never thought about it being French!!!!
