If you're spotting this and you usually shared my daily commemoration, Project Infant does live here too!

As @projectinfant but if you're not planning on staying here, they'll go out weekly over on PI's Substack page: https://projectinfant.substack.com

#Introductions 👋🏻

I'm Louvain 🙂

I am a social historian, writer, and all-around graveyard ghoul living in Wales.

I specialise in death and mourning but my research focuses on the lives of paupers in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I use this little corner of the world wide web to share my historical research and ramblings.

I write about historic buildings, churchyards, people and whatever takes my fancy.

I hope you'll enjoy my ramblings 🖤

#OnThisDay, 20 Nov 1908, suffrage campaigner Millicent Fawcett became the first woman to speak at the Oxford Union debating society. Fawcett was the leader of the non-militant campaign for votes for women.

The Oxford Union was founded in 1823, and women were barred from being members until 1963.

The benefits of joining #TheHauntedLandscape by the #LondonForteanSociety from home today is that I get to listen to the whole wonderful line up 𝘢𝘯𝘥 lose myself in #WelshGhostlore for the day.

First up: digitizing and translating 'Ymddangosiad Ysprydion Drwg' (The Appearance of Evil Spirits), 1844 👻
