The property of George Washington’s beloved #mountvernon was granted to his great-grandfather by King Charles II in 1647.

The name of the estate was chosen by Washington’s half-brother Lawrence in 1743 after his navy commander, Edward Vernon.

George Washington designed an innovative 2-story, 16-sided barn with gaps between the floorboards so mules walking on wheat would stomp the seeds through the slats, speeding up the processing time!

A recreation based on his plans was built at #mountvernon.

Let’s see how much of the Yale English Monarch Series I can get through in a year.

Going to start with Henry III (Part 1) since he’s monarch during the period I’m researching for my thesis right now.

You can see an original "Rupert" at the WWII #museum in New Orleans.

Ruperts were paradummies dropped across Normandy in Operation Titanic the night before the D-Day Landings in June 1945 to mislead Germany into thinking the invasion was happening elsewhere.

Various bits of the ancient Roman city walls of Londinium built c. 200 AD remain around the modern city of London, with some especially cool parts at the Tower of London, where William the Conqueror incorporated them into his castle at the site.

The Lewis & Clark Boat House and Museum in St Charles, MO is a great place to learn more about the 1804 expedition to the Pacific & see a full sized keelboat replica. 28 months later the party arrived back in MO and only lost 1 person the whole journey. #history #mdtt #museum #stcharlesmo

3D scans of Titanic made in 2022 by Magellan LTD are revealing more about the tragedy on 15 April 1912.

The boilers confirm witness accounts that lights stayed on as she slipped underwater.

A simulation shows how a narrow line of gashes in the hull caused the disaster.

I recently learned “Mayhem” was a medieval legal term referring to the criminal action of intentionally maiming another person, particularly so they could not participate in combat.

The word comes from the Anglo-French verb “mahaimer” (to main) and emerged in the 15th century.

The Johnstown Flood on May 31, 1889 was one of the worst disasters in American history.

Swollen by days of rain and decades of mis-management, the South Fork Dam couldn’t hold out and finally gave way, hurling a wall of debris towards Johnstown, PA; killing more than 2200 people.

Washington's Continental Army spent the winter of 1777-78 here under very harsh conditions. Today there's a great museum and several preserved sites to visit. It's incredible to consider how they ever made it through.

St Mary & All Saints, Droxford

Found this lovely lady on a research trip of 13c. female effigies.

She was found buried in a nearby field in 1820, which surely contributed to her excellent condition. The Purbeck marble helped too! Now resting in a #medievalsky church.

I'm registered but space is limited!

Head to Lexington and Concord to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the "shot heard 'round the world". Because sometimes it's nice to let someone else plan the history trip - and they do a great job!
