Hi everyone, History Mom with Friday Fun Facts, for the first time on this beautiful new site. Today in 1553, Lady Jane Grey was proclaimed Queen of England, where she would remain for 9 days. That was sad. Today in 1776, a crowd in NYC tore down a statue of King George III. Happy and safe weekend, everyone!

Hi HM ! Today I was reading about a new Lord Montbatten and Edwina documentary. I saved the article to read later so I'm not sure yet where it will stream, but you might like to check that out !
yay! So glad HM made it over here!
TY, good to be here. -HM
The anniversary of the Hamilton/Burr duel is tomorrow (July 11, 1804!)
Cool; can you believe I still haven't seen "Hamilton"? Maybe this weekend. -HM
History Mom! You're here! And we need Make-up mom.
And I still think of Inmate Mom whenever I put on a jumpsuit, LOL
