I’ve been transcribing more of the #Sudbourne school log books this morning, but I’ve taken a break to watch the @sogorg.bsky.social’s webinar ‘School records and registers’. Else @elsesoggenealogist.bsky.social just said “The log books give you the life of the school” - so true! #OnePlaceWednesday

We're delighted that the Ministry of Justice has confirmed probate documents will not be destroyed. This decision is a significant victory for the preservation of historical records and for all those dedicated to exploring family & social history Our Genealogist @elsesoggenealogist.bsky.social said:

Good news for the #genealogy community. Seems the MoJ proposal to destroy original post 1858 probate documents won’t be going ahead. Still lots to keep our eye on though www.sog.org.uk/news/genealo...

As the final session of our six week exploration of probate records for #genealogy draws near I think none said it better than Nicholas Harris Nicolas in his 1826 work “Testamenta Vetusta” being illustrations from wills

If you want to follow genealogy topics, you can search #genealogy then go to feed and add it. Afterwards, genealogy will show on top. #genealogy

October turned out to be an expensive book purchase month - plus a few for the Kindle too. Too much wandering in the foot notes and bibliographies I’m afraid. (Not) 😻😉😻
