You can find lots of info on specific topics by googling. Your local library should have some books on social history too. nell

I like to be able to try and imagine what like was like for our ancestors and bring things to life a bit more. Has anyone come across any websites which detail things like the clothes people wore and what they typically ate in various eras? Thanks Sharon
