The perfect way to prepare for my talk in Deal this evening. (BBC Weather forecast way out as always…)
Heading to Deal today for a talk for the @kentfhs.bsky.social I'm on stage at 7.30pm and we'll be talking about the impact of illegitimacy on family history research. I always enjoy my trips down to Deal although judging by the forecast, I don't think I'll be spending too much time on the beach!

An intriguing reference that I came across in a 20th century volume of extracts from the Goldsmiths Company's Wardens' Account & Court Minute Books dating from 1636: Letter from Exeter about evil practices at Taunton Well, now I want to know more!

A search on Ancestry offered up these 15 user-generated family trees showing John Whitby, born (actually baptised, but that's the least of our worries) in September 1610 as their ancestor. Nah. This John Whitby died as an infant. This is the nonsense they're building their shiny AI future on... 😡

Frederick Thomas Port is the only one of my great grandparents not to have been born in Scotland, and he was born some distance away in the English market town of Buckingham. Specifically, he was born (in 1850) in Church Street, where his parents ran a draper's shop. #MyFamily52Maps

I went to Goldsmiths Hall in London yesterday to look at some minute books. I didn't find what I was hoping to find but I did learn some important things; principally that the Wardens of the Goldsmiths Company did not approve of 'deceitful bodkins'. I'm assured that this bodkin is NOT deceitful...
