House History: The Sibling Houses, a short article posted online towards the end of last month, looks at a pair of houses in #Fremont, Seattle, Washington State, which began as homes built by a brother and sister, whose families occupied the properties for decades. #HouseHistory #OnePlaceWednesday

Tomorrow’s #AATP theme is Health and Medicine. I’m sure one-placers will want to refer back to these during the @oneplacestudies.bsky.social’s #OnePlaceHealthcare ā€˜shared endeavour’ next year. So it’s no coincidence that as a platinum sponsor, SOPS is sponsoring tomorrow!

Please excuse a shameless #OnePlaceWednesday plug for my talk about Dr John Cordy Keer, Medical Officer of Health for the Plomesgate District which covered my #OnePlaceStudy of #Sudbourne. It goes live at 8am tomorrow. If the role sounds bureaucratic & boring, think again…

What a dummy I am - got engrossed in something & forgot the watch party šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø So I watched it as soon as I remembered, & very good it was too - especially for anyone in the USA who is thinking of starting a #OnePlaceStudy. Here’s a link to it

Turns out the reason I couldn’t initially find Charles Farlow on the 1841 census at Ancestry (as part of my current #OnePlaceStudy project) is because they’ve transcribed his surname as Farton. šŸ’ØšŸ˜¬ #OnePlaceWednesday

On Monday I went to the Batley St. Mary of the Angels Torchlight Procession, 75 years after the inaugural event. This one was 73 years to the evening of the third procession, & I’ve written about that event in the post below

The next meeting of the Bourne End, Buckinghamshire #OnePlaceStudy Society, on Thursday October 15th, is another ā€˜fireside chat.’ The speaker this time is Barrie Penfold, who has been volunteering with Target Magazine and the Community Centre for over 40 years. #OnePlaceWednesday

There is a small, single-storey extension (also brick-built and whitewashed, with a red-tiled roof) on the left, and a single-storey wooden building which may be a function room. The tops of trees behind the buildings can be seen, and the sky is blue with white clouds.

I’ve just booked another trip to my happy place - The (UK) National Archives! 🄳 I’ll be trying to find some information about the elusive #Sudbourne #workhouse in these Very Big Books, & photographing some 1910 Valuation Act records for another one-placer
