Charlotte was looking for a "Lemon Chiffon Cake", I'm wondering if perhaps she meant "pie" (referred to a filling).

Here is one from a 1973 McCall's set (it is categorized as a "grandma's favourite"). No reason why lemon couldn't be substituted for the lime... picture shows a very thick, fluffy pie and sounds much like Charlotte describes (complete with heavy cream!):

Lime Chiffon Pie

Ingredients:

9-inch baked pie shell
4 egg whites
1 envelope unflavoured gelatine
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup lime juice [or lemon]
1 cup sugar [divided]
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon grated lime peel [or lemon]
green food colour [for lime]
1 cup heavy cream

In large bow of electric mixer, let egg whites warm to room temperature, 1 hour.

Meanwhile, sprinkle gelatine over 1/4 cup cold water in small bowl. Let gelatine stand 5 minutes, to soften.

In top of double boiler, beat egg yolks slightly. Beat in lime juice, 1/2 cup sugar and salt. Cook over hot, not boiling, water, stirring, until mixture thickens slightly and coats metal spoon.

Remove from heat. Add gelatine and lime peel, stirring until gelatine is dissolved. Add 2 drops food colourp; mix well. Set mixture aside to cool.

At high speed, beat egg whites just until soft peaks form when beater is slowly raised.

Gradually beat remaining 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until stiff peaks form when beater is raised.

Whip 1/2 cup cream until stiff.

With rubber scraper or wire whisk, using an under-and-over motion, gently fold gelatine mixture and whipped cream into egg white mixture just until combined.

Turn into baked pie shell, mounding high. Refrigerate until firm - several hours, or overnight.

To serve:
Whip remainder of cream until stiff. Put through pastry bag with decorating tip, to form rosettes around edge of pie.

Makes 6-8 servings.
