First document I discovered for my #AFewForgottenWomen Ulster weaver lady today was rather upsetting to ME! Weird! But all part of finding out more about our (shared) roots, I suppose. Fascinating stuff. Thanks team! #ForgottenWomenFriday

So, assuming that the person in the White House is not risking his OWN money, where’s he hidden his assets? With his pal Vladimir?

3/3 #AFewForgottenWomenFriday so it keeps me on my toes. And it keeps US off the streets as we say. Now to find out why my girl ended UP on the streets - or at least fending for herself. A hard life whatever I find. At least now she won’t be completely forgotten.

2/3 well under way between acts at 14.30, when I suddenly see another girl by this name, actually born in the county she’s in in 1884! That’s more promising so back to the drawing board as I say.All part of reconstructing her life #AFewForgottenWomenFriday and certainly it keeps us… (see 3rd post)

Just to say I have very little time for people raving about how passionate they are about something. Probably not someone I’d get on with very well. Being passionate abt sth ok, but putting that in your bio? Nah. Sorry, just sounds overdone or pathetic or both to me. Get a life guys. 😘

Yes indeed!
I sometimes am shocked to hear that not everyone knows about the GRO’s own birth and death indexes and cheaper digital certificate copies for England and Wales. Here’s some more detail. Don’t pay more than you need to!
