Alice Walter's will might be familiar if you read our project blog, as it was our Will of the Month in October 2024.

Our Zooniverse volunteers reached this fantastic milestone while the project team were in Exeter, and meeting to discuss next steps for the transcriptions and the database.

We were delighted to reach this milestone, and discussed how valuable all the Zooniverse contributions have been.

You can find out more on our Zooniverse 'Talkboards' - which we'll continue to monitor.

We hope to be able to share preliminary results in the near future, and BlueSky will be one of the first places we'll update - so watch this space! 📜

And thank you, Philippa, for everything you've done to contribute to the project!

Thank you Austen, yes it really is moving - and as you'll know from reading many wills, we still get surprised by how poignant / personal some of them are.

Thank you Nicola! We on the team also wish we'd seen it sooner, for various projects!

Thanks for sharing, Dave.

Thanks Cordelia - we were amazed to find this one.

Many thanks for sharing, Austen!
