In 1851 my ggg grandmother (13) and her sister (11) spent the 1850s washing ore at the local lead mine. They lived in a tiny cottage just below the summit of a windswept and isolated mountain near Pumlymon. People pay to experience that kind of off-grid existence today!
i have found out that i have ancestors in Abaraeron, Jenkin Rees, master mariner, he sailed the schooner, “John and Henry” and all of his children were either sea captains or they married sea captains, always trying to find out more.
It's exactly that. I think Patreon got its name from "Patron of the Arts." The books that I talk about in that short only got made and printed because there was someone with a great idea and then others who helped by funding the project, supporting the art that they wanted to see in the world. In a different video on the writing of the first welsh dictionary, it was only through the interest of a wealthy lady that any of that writer's books got printed.
