My second online talk in the last few weeks. I wish there were more hybrid and online conferences - I found them so helpful during the pandemic.

[History @ Wolves @history_wlv]

If you are at the SHS conference this week, enjoy! 🙂 And look out for our PhD student Linda Hutton's paper on 'Using the 1921 census and First World War Pension Records to research Barnsley War Widows'!! 😀👇

@urbanfantasyphd Congratulations! I've just got the latest Hallows book ... As inspired by you last year. x

@Andy1129298 I was aware of these, but I know they keep adding new paving stones, so individual photos of the ones I haven't got on the website would be great. https://t.co/YmDOpdc28l (P.S. Not really on social media now due to instructions from above. Email direct please?)

Attended 'online' and successfully presented my first conference paper (as a PhD student, I have given many talks, presentations and papers in the past TBH).

[History @ Wolves @history_wlv]

A great paper on 'Examining Absence in First World War Commemoration' from PhD student Linda Hutton at the university's research conference! 👏👏👏

@ZJAyres This just landed on my doormat. Looks great! The section and chapter headings are pulling me in already. Plus the (partial) view out of my bedroom window as I am having a stress related Crohn's flare this morning & am still snuggled under the duvet.

@CArchives for #EYACommunity Here's a post which came out of my visit to @BarnsArchives last week. https://t.co/hqQN90vfxH

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

Last week I visited @BarnsArchives for research for the first time since the start of the pandemic. Their recently catalogued Nonconformist collection has yielded several #FWW war memorials new to me, and solved some of my 'Absent' men. Here is an example. https://t.co/hqQN90vfxH

Arrived this morning. Saw a recommendation recently and thought 'Why not?'. Glad I did as it's a complete change to hours of 'head in documents' research, putting the feelings and emotions back into what had become a bit routine. Thank you.

@bloxbatts @footsteps_pod @Helionbooks @CooperStAuthor @CharlieEve5 @Taff_Gillingham I ordered the book after seeing this, sorry for the late acknowledgement, I had turned Twitter notifications off for a while to concentrate on stuff.

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@stickmancrips Option 1. It covers all kinds of pain, option 2 is too specific to a joint issue.

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@BALHNews @jessamycarlson I am sorry I missed the 1921 census webinar yesterday, but 6pm was always going to be awkward as it's around our usual time for our evening meal, then events made watching the 6pm news together even more important than usual. I do hope a recording the webinar will be available?

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

For a change, I researched two #FWW soldiers who came home. One of the members of my "Barnsley's History - The Great War" Facebook group posted a picture of an ID tag, and it went from there. https://t.co/KimbhCSxPZ

#OnThisDay in 1838 the Huskar Pit disaster killed 26 children. Four years ago I supported the #Huskar180 project to mark the 180th anniversary. This is one of the events at the memorial in Nabs Wood, Silkstone Common.

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

Happy to discover that one of my 'Absent from Commemoration' #FWW soldiers IS actually named on a memorial in the #Barnsley area @WLV_DoctoralCol #wlvpgr The Roll of Honour was erected before he was killed & not updated. https://t.co/iicVgzgsSi

@MarieGardiner Congratulations! xx

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@skinoverbone @syptweet Oh heck! That's dreadful. Do they not know what it represents?

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

I have been working on my research while the builders have been 'snagging' all day. It has been very productive! I think I found a new name for the Hoyland war memorial! https://t.co/15oNMa5Jkh

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@SophieMHistory Not promising to finish mine today ... especially if I keep reading Twitter. ;-)

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

Does having a day on the sofa catching up with a pile of history society journals and magazines count as PhD work? Already found some resources & the sense of achievement reducing the 'to read' pile is immense.

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@_george_hall_ @JaneElRoberts Too right! And saved on the Cloud and external drives as well, with the rest of my family history.

[Linda Hutton @HuttonCroft]

@JaneElRoberts I'm sure I've still got my son (36) and daughter's (34), filed and scanned. Most places are happy with a scan now. I was terrified when the Student Loans people 'lost' my original 3 years ago. Goodness knows why they needed it, I had successfully applied for PGCE & Masters loans.
