Skimming the issue I stopped at a news item about the new Suffolk Archives building in Ipswitch. Following a link and searching for my Suffolk Digby ancestry I found a marriage bond for a late 18th-century marriage with enough information in the snippet I didn't need to see the original. That shows yet again the benefit of checking out WDYTYA? Magazine which is available through PressReader at the OPL and "other fine Canadian public libraries."
