Hi Folks
found this excellent site http://brainyhistory.com/years/
just look for the year you want
example my gt gt gt grandfather was born in 1806 and in that year this happened
July 3 Michael Keens exhibits 1st cultivated strawberry
August 6 Holy Roman Empire ends; it was neither holy, Roman, nor an empire
October 8 British forces lay siege to French port of Boulogne using Congreve rockets, invented by Sir William Congreve |
it just puts a new angle on life in them times
Regards
Ken

Thanks for posting this link. I have just spent ages looking through the various year events. It's fascinating!
I have discovered that I share my birthday with Ian Botham and my husband shares his birthday with Peter Phillips (Princess Anne's son). Should we be excited.........
