York Family History Society
Big celebration this year for local and family historians in Yorkshire. @heritagehunter @BALHNews @FederationFHS @UoYBorthwick @HolgateWindmill @clemhallhistory
You will all recall the naval battle of Flamborough Head in 1779 - the only time the Americans tried to invade us during the American War of Independence. John Paul Jones was Scottish by the way! The leased vessel Countess of Scarborough defended our northern shores. #battles
