| You know that they exist, you know where they are, and you’ve never read or digitized them? Or was that sarcasm? |

| They’re at my aunts house, I’ve just not had a chance to read them or ask my cousin to digitise them and send them to me. |

| ▲ | iamacyborg 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | I’m quite fortunate on the family history side of things. Not sure a chatbot is what’s needed but I’d be happy to make digitised files public that relate to things that are in the public interest. This ancestor for example was key in the acquisition of the rosetta stone and the parthenon marbles and was the recipient of one of Canova’s “Ideal Heads” that can now be seen at the Ashmolean in Cambridge. There’s a lot of history associated with those 3 events. |
