  1. “Ireland during the period 1536–1691 saw the first full conquest of the island by England and its colonization with Protestant settlers from Great Britain.

    Have they been at it that long ? And are they still fecking at it now ?

  2. Oh sure that’s Mary.. From down the road. Her uncle died there the other day. He was a bit of a prick though so you can understand why she’s smiling

  3. Was she a Noblewoman or was she closer to the Peasantry? Her dress and hat clearly show influence but the shoes don’t make sense for a noblewoman to wear. I would love more info if possible OP!
