High Fives - June 8, 2018




High Fives are articles or blog posts I have read during the week that I find interesting, and perhaps are pertinent to my research. Sometimes there are only a couple and sometimes there are quite a few.









~by John at John Grenham – Irish Roots
One of my ancestors was a Poor Law Guardian in Lancashire. Search newspapers for Poor Law names. For other Poor Law and Workhouse info check out the link at the bottom of John’s article.


~by Micheál Ó Maoileoin at Galway Daily
You can search or browse different ways including by name or by map.


~by Jill Ball at GeniAus
What a fun idea! I have only a couple that I know of – perhaps I should look for more.

~by Allison Meier at JSTOR Daily
He is also mentioned in the back of this book I was just looking at recently, titled Wax Portraits and Silhouettes, published by the Colonial Dames of America. I use male and female Victorian-esque Silhouettes on my Ancestry profiles to distinguish my line of Grandparents.
