MummyplaysMinecraft on that other place

I’m a lifelong genealogist and independence supporter (unrelated). I’m a cross between an old hippy, a disco diva and a classic rocker, lover of books, art, old maps and history. Mum to a 9yo, usually dumfungled 🤣

It’s me 🤣
Is it Whamageddon already if it is your 10yo singing it? Especially if they use the other lyrics?

But the very next day you put it on eBay
TYTSMF😢😭
I gave it to someone in Tesco’s

He is so proud of himself 🤣

Does it count or am I still in the game 🤣

Trying to decide if I am superstitious or not.…

Just dropped a mirror and it’s smashed.

Don’t think I can cope with 7 years bad luck😥

Is it just me? There used to be a #Genealogy feed at the top of the posts. Luckily I also have my own Genealogy List but the feed automatically listed all posts with the hashtag. But it’s disappeared from my screen overnight?

There should be a rule on Ancestry that people can only be added on trees if there is an actual source, not just an Ancestry Hint. My OH's Great Aunt keeps appearing as married in 1899 Galway. Seems plausible BUT ...🧵

As someone who loves #History and #Genealogy this is worrying…. Historical context is everything in family history, not that man’s racist and narcissistic interpretation. It may not be as immediately important compared to families being separated, people being held and basically tortured but still….

Not necessarily #Genealogy but can anyone recommend a UK self-publishing company for non-fiction book on history? Ideally, would prefer recommendations on a company you have dealt with.
Thanks

#Genealogy Can anyone explain the phrase 'churched'?

I'm going through Baptism Records 1840-81, County Galway, Ireland (online microfilm of originals). Suddenly, thrice on an 1848 page there's "Date, Churched (her name) wife of (his name)".

It doesn't seem to appear other years. Any ideas?

Senators are ELECTED to be a VOICE for their constituents. What happens when that voice is stifled, thrown to the ground, and handcuffed like Senator Padilla was?

We have a democracy, but we can lose that democracy.

I took to the Senate floor to speak out—I hope you'll join me.
