BEGATS AND BEQUEATHALS

Or, Subtitled: “A Woman’s Lot“

The collage above, which shows the three generations of female ancestors prior to me, happened to be on my Ancestry page when I opened it on International Women’s Day (8 March). Ancestry had prepared this collage from photos in my tree, and, though I doubt that Ancestry did this to commemorate International Women’s Day, it was a happy coincidence to find it on my page at that site on that day.
