Hi, I'm Janet. #OnePlaceStudies researching Springhill in Rossendale, Lancs and Newlands Valley in Cumbria. Currently studying for the Oxford Diploma in Local History. Occasional musings on anaesthesia, birding and Burnley FC
Good morning, world! I’m up, showered, dressed, (almost) fed, and ready to see how Day 1 of #AllAboutThatPlace has gone. #FamilyHistory and #Genealogy folks, did I mention it’s all free? 10 days of #OnePlaceStudies fun and learning.https://m.facebook.com/groups/allaboutthatplace/
Proof reading the next, bumper, edition of Destinations, the @OnePlaceStudies journal. Some excellent '10' themed articles there - thank you everyone who contributed. #OnePlaceStudies.

I'm happy to share that I'm working with the Society of Genealogists and the Family History Federation to help bring another youth conference.

I've been asked to share this call for proposals, so calling all young genealogists! Does this sound like you? If so, join in and submit a proposal!

Here are the daily topics for the amazing #AllAboutThatPlace! Watch any or all of 130 short talks over 10 days via https://www.facebook.com/groups/allaboutthatplace or YouTube and find out how to combine #FamilyHistory and #LocalHistory in a study of #oneplace

Sorting out notes from the Oxford Advanced Undergraduate Diploma in Local History whilst awaiting the results.

Filled in the registration documents for Lancaster's PGCert in Regional and Local History.

Onwards...

Fascinated by the relationship between what is in the ground and what happens above ground. Goldscope mine, Newlands, my #OPSForFree place.

My talk at All About That Place is on this topic, but that is about Springhill.

Working on an article for Destinations, the @OnePlaceStudies journal today. Why did people in my #OPSForFree place of Newlands die in droves in the 1590s? #OnePlaceStudies
