I've imported Royal Commission data (from @jrdollery.bsky.social and @scottlloyd.bsky.social) into @mappingthemarch.bsky.social for @latemedievalist.bsky.social and @mattlampitt.bsky.social ) and I'm becoming slightly obsessed with the fragmentation of Caernarfonshire and Denbighshire!

Our database of people and their connections to places and manuscripts across the Welsh Marches is progressing! Starting to reconstruct individual networks from piles of rolls is very exciting as there's so much potential for how users of our database/website will use the data for their own research
