Finally planning out a #oneplacestudy that I've been wanting to do for years now. The "blessing and curse" freedom in planning is really hitting me! How did you narrow down your time/place for your project? What would you do different if you started over? #oneplacewednesday #oneplacestudies

I always intended to work on them some more and add them to my own site – the first one is now there! #OnePlaceWednesday

Adding people from the 1921 Census to my #OnePlaceStudy of St Mary Bourne today. Slow going as I've been locating the exact property and plotting it, along with cross referencing against the Tithe map. Plus linking employees to employers.
