I had never previously considered much in the way of family history note-taking, but I've found myself eyeing Irish histories recently. I only really know the Potato Famine and the Easter Rising, which is looking increasingly unforgivable.
Pretty much everything to do with England's treatment of Ireland is, unfortunately. (And this is where it starts and next thing you're reading all the weirdest histories of illness and occupations and local history and who knows what just to paint in the background of their lives.)
h dear, poor Alec! Still, I daresay he's better prepared for it than most. My mother has just started the modern day (I think), Cornwall-set series by the same author, which she seems to be enjoying thus far.
I mean, a body is bad enough but hours and hours of dangerous digging went above and beyond. (I think he would prefer it if Daisy didn't manage any more explosions). I've read the first three of those Cornish ones & thought they were pretty good too. Not quite as much fun as the Daisies, but rather good in a different way.
