Patty and I spent three hours watching the History Channel special, Desperate Crossing, last evening. I typically don’t watch television from 9pm to midnight, but this one was worth it.

In the winter of 1085, William the Conqueror commissioned a great survey to discover the resources and taxable values of all the boroughs and manors in England. If he was going to do a thorough job of taxation, he needed to know what there was to be taxed, and who owned it. As King, […]
My friend, Genealogist Arlene Eakle, just started a new blog. And she started right off with a very interesting topic. I’ve done a bit of blogging about Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code in the past - but Arlene throws a whole new slant on it. Following is an excerpt from her July 31, 2006 […]

The following excerpt is from a fascinating article about the Brits’ own Tony Robinson - and his passion for genealogy. The man speaks of ancestry research as “archaeology without the muddy hands.”
Radical genealogy. They’re not words that usually go together. But Tony Robinson isn’t the usual kind of history presenter. He’s not so much the […]
It looks to me like the Brits are more interested in “truth in advertising” than Americans. It seems to me like the more outrageous the ad, the better we like it.
