Lovely to be back at the Queen’s House, Royal Museums Greenwich, to start my Caird Research Fellowship! I’ll be working on my project, ‘Navigating Welfare: Greenwich Hospital School and state-led childcare and welfare, 1806–1840’. #ecr #skystorians #19thcentury #royalnavy #welfarehistory

A long read, but a fascinating exploration of why #History is complicated. It gets to the heart of the difficulties in establishing one of the most fundamental *facts* in #FamilyHistory, a date of birth. #Genealogy

I Don’t Recognize Alberta Anymore - Macleans.ca My province has always fought with Ottawa. What’s new is a premier who gives legitimacy to separation.

Maclean's approached me about writing a personal essay on Alberta Secession and my opposition to it.
It was published today.

This #PostboxSaturday pic is located close to the Merchant Taylors Almshouses in Lewisham. The date over the door is 1855 but I have no idea if this postbox was in use then! #FamilyHistory

Thanks, Penny. I really enjoyed researching this one.

It was really really good. I have always been enthralled by this family and their tragic story. I was in St Petersburg many years ago and saw their graves in the chapel. Thank you for sharing all your hard work!
