@DrLindaPorter1 @restorationcake @MattLewisAuthor @JLLaynesmith @NathenAmin Most fascinating here is how people use evidence, the questions they ask of it, the context it provides & how it alters the narrative. Still too many queries like this linked to the ‘new’ document, but it’s exciting that items continue to emerge from the archives. More digging!

@restorationcake @MattLewisAuthor Haven't heard the episode so cannot comment on its content. Interested, however, in the reactions of @SeanC1509 , @JLLaynesmith and @NathenAmin . But as a historian I am always wary of sweeping assertions.

Oh my god. This is game changing research. Congratulations @MattLewisAuthor, this is a brilliant episode. Richard III didn’t kill his nephews. They didn’t die in the Tower. open.spotify.com/episode/2Zc3wJ…

@NotJustTudors @sixteenthCgirl I really enjoyed chatting with Suzannah about #Henry VII. The excellent edit keeps a lid on my tendency to talk & talk about this fascinating story & early #Tudor things generally! Many thanks @sixteenthCgirl @HistoryHit @NotJustTudors

Prof. Suzannah Lipscomb kicks off four special podcasts on the Tudor Dynasty with King Henry VII, an exile and outsider with barely a claim to the throne. Suzannah finds out more from Henry VII’s biographer Dr. Sean Cunningham: podfollow.com/not-just-the-t… @SeanC1509 @sixteenthCgirl

Can someone read the first few lines, especially what the 1729 references? Thanks

@YstradHistory It appearing to us by the decision of the honourable Mr Justice Denton bearing date the eleventh day of March anno dom 1729 and by the Entry ?therein made by Edward Eyre esquire, clerk of the warrants of the Court of Common Pleas of the inrollment thereof in his office That...

@MrJ1971 @TheMedievalDrK I was using it yesterday, too, so this looks like an issue at the @dhishef end

@TheMedievalDrK Hopefully a temporary technical issue? Do you know @SeanC1509 ?

Many thanks, @AlineDouma for sending copies of your thesis to @UkNatArchives medievalists - safely and gratefully received. Very happy that we had a small part to play in this tremendous piece of work! Congratulations once again.

CFP alert! @UkNatArchives will be back at @IMC_Leeds #IMC2024 'Crisis' with a series of panels on 'Archives and Sources' We welcome abstracts that touch on a wide range of themes concerning archives and sources, from single document discoveries to uncovering archival collections

@euanroger @UkNatArchives @IMC_Leeds @pablodiablo74 @UkNatArcRes After the very useful contributions on these themes at this year’s @IMC_Leeds we hope to expand the range of discussion at #IMC2024, so please consider submitting a proposal to share your thoughts on current research practice and how archival material is used.

@jessamycarlson Many Congratulations Jessamy!

And it’s in. I just laugh hysterically whenever I think about that. #phdlife #submitted

@DianeStrange @AmandaCapern @DrAngelaMuir Many congratulation, Diane

Good Boy, Basil!

@SimonPEgan @QUB_History @HAPPatQUB @HistoryTcd @TCDMedieval Great to hear this news Simon! Congratulations.

Been sitting on this for a little while now but I'm delighted to announce that I'll be joining @QUB_History @HAPPatQUB in January as lecturer in #Medieval #Irish #History! Will miss the folks at @HistoryTcd and @TCDMedieval but can't wait to get started in the new post!

@History_Lauren @NathenAmin @NicolaTallis @MattLewisAuthor @rachel_delman @euanroger Have done some digging, but found little to help answer the key question. I even tried reading backwards form sources on the similarly mysterious death of Ferdinando Stanley in 1594, but no joy so far. We can talk next time you're in the archives.

@NathenAmin @NicolaTallis @MattLewisAuthor @SeanC1509 @rachel_delman @euanroger Any thoughts on this?

Off to deliver leaflets about the event on 4th 😊
