Car coat is definitely a term that is used by some.

Jollification of patients just before they’re call in to see the doctor?

Someone was having a laugh.

Just post WWII or early 1950’s I’d say.

Sorry, got confused looked stuff up.

Per Merriam Webster: “an institution, typically charitable, designed to care for and protect vulnerable or at-risk children, such as those who are abandoned, neglected, destitute, or delinquent. It serves as a place of refuge and support . . .”

I think it is actually meant to be “protectory.” I went to this directory, did ctrl F and typed in “protectory” and the lo and behold: archive.org/stream/catho...

Brought in by squirrels or some such no doubt!

Well done! Circling back periodically to graze again can be so productive. Last week I learned of a first son from one of my mother’s Merseyside lines who died at 7 mos. We did not know about him. Family Search FT had added some cemetery registers since I last looked.

Good luck!

Thanks!

Would love to see the other side of that card. Looks delicious

So sad.

I believe I'm right in thinking that what IT people really want when things aren't working properly is for lots of people to tell them that things aren't working properly so I'd just like the IT people at @nationalarchives.gov.uk.web.brid.gy to know that, currently, things aren't working properly...

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

YouTube video by Kyiv Independent Zelensky thanks America for four minutes straight

Trump and Vance have repeatedly claimed that Zelensky has not been sufficiently grateful for U.S. support throughout the war.

We compiled instances where Zelensky has publicly expressed gratitude to the U.S., its people, and its leadership for being Ukraine’s largest supporter.

I always liked, “It’s better than a slap in the face with a wet fish!”

My dad hung onto a well worn newspaper cutting from the early 1900’s with a poem about babies who had passed away being flowers in God’s garden or some such. His grandfather carried to be reminded of a young son who died. So yes, they cared deeply but got on with life because they had to.

Trying to recall something, perhaps someone can help me

Did I see a recent post about an online event on February 28th where the focus or theme will be standards for presenting dna evidence?

Or did I dream it?

Never mind. Reading wiki now.

Would love to see this! I wonder what research they did.

You come up as my tenth cousin!

I have over 1,000, all on my father’s side. Quite a few third cousins too.

Garbage in, garbage out, as we used to say.
