tidbit of the week: Ben Franklin's nephew's great-great-great granddaughter married my great-great-great-grandfather's nephew once removed.

It's a 16 degree relationship, but still... I'll take it!

My research has been a bust this week. Two dead ends on Tuesday, only a partially successful of a 19th century record yesterday. Here’s hoping I have better luck tonight!

When Beate discovered during her research that one of her family members had fought under in the Iberian War (1807 to 1814), this discovery confirmed to her that it is worthwhile to look at what her did. It was her great-great-great grandfather's brother who went to war under Napoleon. While researching, she came across a missing person report. There is no death certificate, but it is documented that the young man did not return.

How did the world, different countries and cities or a special region look like many years ago? The Archive tries to answer this question with the help of old world maps, some historical world atlases as well as thousands of maps, hundreds of street maps, special maps and city maps, especially from Germany, Central Europe and the world, from 1730 on. Ideal for research.

@Tony_Meredith Just stumbled across this article by Ronald Dunning on a Burgh-Darcy marriage, back in 1329: janeausteninvermont.blog/2013/

Elizabeth probably attended the first wedding of her husband's sister Joan de at in 1312, but left Ireland in 1316 so would not have been at the second.

I think the allude to in 's day, but a lot of info was available to her: more at historians.social/@kawulf/1096

In the course of his research, Simon came across the story of his great-great-grandfather - and thus the history of the family. Now he has published the book "Agostino, the Bergeller". The book not only tells of the fate of an individual, it sheds light on a society, the relationship between generations, the role of women, the effects of social upheavals.

In research, one must proceed step by step and not skip anything. Genealogical research begins at home, with the review of documents. Only then should research on birth, marriage and death records begin.

For other weavers it is participation in a family or cultural tradition, and I can't make that kind of narrow or broad claim. No weavers birthed me. But I'm a person, and we know that family is made through care and intention as much as through law or biology -- so I suppose I am, through care and intention, being connected to a broader tradition of and work.

Hi, just arrived from mstdn. I’m a mature student interested in late popular and culture. I’m writing a book (due 2024) as well as a thesis, and am an editorial assistant for Victoriographies. 
In case this isn’t enough, I’m restoring a house that was built in 1896. I love walking my dogs, research, and trying to solve cryptic crosswords.
Am looking to follow and of the that have also flown the nest recently!

research is not a sprint, but an endurance race - if taken seriously, it is often very time-consuming.
