My cousin recently shared some photos she found in family albums. This is my great grandmother 🤩 Apparently she was a gifted seamstress and made this dress!! #familyhistory #greatgrandmother

My grandmother Phyllis (Phyl) Elizabeth Ambler, born #OTD in Wallasey in 1908. Her mother was from #Shropshire. She met my grandad when visiting family and they moved to Gobowen after they married.(My brother now lives on the Wirral after marrying someone from Claughton!) #genealogy #FamilyHistory

Hello #familyhistory friends. I have taken some time away from #genealogy for personal reasons, but I am slowly starting to creep my way back into the records. Another #mugshot discovered today... 6M hard labour for larceny in Apr 1874. Digging deeper into this one...
Sepia-toned Victorian prison photograph of a woman facing the camera with a serious expression. Her dark hair is centre-parted and pulled back, and she wears a long, dark dress with a high neckline. She holds a slate bearing a handwritten name and prisoner number, 255. Above the image is the printed heading “Photograph of Prisoner.”

Happy birthday to my great-grandmother, Annie Reilly Cassidy, born in Co Cavan ☘️ in 1872. She immigrated to New Haven, Connecticut as a young woman. Here is her story: toomuchbrudders.com/2025/…. #Irish #immigrant #FamilyHistory #genealogy

Annie Cassidy didn't have it easy. None of her seven children died from want of care, though, as she told granddaughter Jean back in the '40s.

#genealogy This is my 2x gr grandmother Elizabeth who lived her life in North Jersey, just outside of NYC. She painted and had her own kiln and created beautiful ceramic art. I'm so fortunate to have a few pieces she did! #NJGenealogy #FamilyHistory #NJ
Elizabeth when she was 13
Elizabeth painted this pitcher and fired it in her own kiln.
Elizabeth painted this gorgeous vase, which stands about 2 1/2 feet. She fired it in her own kiln and it's signed on the bottom. The date is 1914.

I've been playing with tithe maps from @thegenealogist.bsky.social. The plots marked in green were owned by my 4x GGF, William Bellamy (1784-1842). The map covers part of the tything of Elton in the parish of Westbury-on-Severn, Gloucestershire. (There's some OS map overlay showing.) #FamilyHistory
An overlay of 1839 tithe map with later Ordnance Survey shown faintly. Four plots are highlighted with green boundaries while red pins indicate each individual plot.
