Suddenly fancy reading part of the #DomesdayBook. I had to explain to my (non-historian) husband what it is, and it occurred to me that in all the years I've been aware of it, I've never actually looked at it. #history #historidons

Working on my CV as I prepare for a job search. I'm a #researcher. My skills are . . . esoteric, I suppose. (Obsolete is the word I use when discouraged.) There are companies/services out there that would value them, but it's hard to find these entities and I'm at a bit of a loss where to look. In the past, the right jobs have just kind of found me. It would be great if that happened again, but I can't rely on that and we need an adequate income. Wish me luck. #geneadons #historidons #libraries

Yay! 30 pages of 18th C military records freshly arrived in my email box from #Kew this morning. #historidons #geneadons #genealogy #archives

@nathanledbetter @tonahangen @lizcovart @histodons which makes me think. It would be hard to call an autobiography, a history, unless you were using the word " history" in a very narrow way, wouldn't it?
So many ppl quote autobiographical facts as "history"
