He hoped that Lost Cousins members would “add a few more ancestors to the database” rather than send condolences. If you have a #OnePlaceStudy, you could add your OPS residents by following this guidance.

A blast from my past - the Medieval Soldier database takes nearly 300,000 military service records from 1369-1453 and makes them available as a searchable database.

An invaluable resource for understanding medieval warfare, society and the English medieval state. Learn more in the link. 🗃️
