Oooh! Those are so cute! I love the fluffy graduation dress.
Say, I was going to ask you- what was that 1840-1960s message board you mentioned while you were out here?

It's great! These days mostly I search if I'm looking for something specific, or make a post if I can't find it. There's loads of great info in past threads. Keep an eye out for the users with the "Senior Research" icon - if they say it, you can bet it's *right* (at least as far as current research indicates. Carolann Schmitt is pretty much my 19th-century goddess. ;)
