I've started writing up my report for the project. Elizabeth's life was full, but full, also, with such sadness.

A great research day for our first Friday, thank you to everyone who joined us. Lots of sad stories uncovered and ones that would otherwise be 'forgotten'. They will be on the @Few4gottenwomen website over the next few months or so

Made good progress on my project - a lot further than I thought I would. Three marriages, eight children, and still plenty to do.
