Lizzy W @llwoowoo.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Evening wind-down time has recently consisted of cataloguing the family archives - a long overdue job.

Lizzy W @llwoowoo.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Who doesn't love a good rare book?! Including some that belonged to Thomas Jones' of Llantysilio Hall. The Jones' are only briefly mentioned in the history of the hall & estate - these books & their contents could be gold mines (it's common to find annotations & random notes within books like these) 010
