A quick explainer on one way to get #genealogy data from a spreadsheet onto your WordPress website.
A few people have asked me about this lately. It's an easy way to publish searchable genealogy info, and a good first step towards a more sophisticated solution.

Workhouse question for the #genealogy gang...
In my part of London there's a high incidence of people admitted to workhouses (mid 18th C) having just smashed a street lamp or window.
Would such crimes have been a way to get admission to the house, while minor enough to avoid a custodial sentence?

#genealogy gang, if a child in the 1840s was discharged from a workhouse "for adoption by" a member of the nobility would this be adoption in the modern legal sense?
Or putting them into education, maybe with a respectable family, etc, but not as part of the adoptee's family as such.

Distant cousin, 1921 census says he worked as a railway engine cleaner for LNER. Dies 1923 age 20. I just wonder...

While digitising family albums lately I was delighted to identify my biological gt-grandfather Charles Hawkins (1862-1943) of Warboys & Mossley. Dog unidentified. These look like allotment clothes to me.
My grandfather, known in town as a Hawkins, passed on his official surname Andrew.
