1. Four generations of my family on both sides were wed at Bradford Cathedral.

2. My GGG grandmother was a midwife for Maria Brontë at the births of Emily's two eldest siblings, Maria and Elizabeth.

3. Emily Brontë's father Patrick baptised and officiated the funerals for many of my ancestors.

1?

Just guessing as 2 and 3 seem to have a bit of a link...

My guess too, is that this happened a long time ago... (Not in a distant galaxy though)

1 and 3 are true.

Bradford Cathedral is very significant to my family.

My GGG grandfamily is laid to rest in the St. Michaels and All Angels churchyard, outside the Brontë parsonage.
I have copies of their baptismal records and funeral services, all signed by Patrick Brontë. One was signed by Arthur Bell Nicholls, Patrick's curate and Charlotte Brontë's widower, after Charlotte's death in 1855. Patrick did not preside funerals while in mourning.

Regarding 2: There's local speculation and source material to suggest that a woman in my family was indeed Maria's midwife in Thornton, but I believe she was my GGG grandmother's sister, not my GGG herself. I'm still researching this. Those ancestors emigrated to New Zealand so it's difficult to track.

1. I've been boycotting a local grocer for nearly twenty years because they teased my ASD father about his speech impediment. We learned that Dad was the butt of many jokes any time he shopped there. Little did they know they'd be charged with harassment or that my dad would later become a national hero.

2. I've been boycotting a pharmacy for seven years. The druggist insinuated I was addicted to oestrogen which my doctor had ordered, and she shouted "Look at me when I speak to you!" in a sarcastic tone in front of customers as I tried to leave the shop. This was after she referred to my vagina very loudly, in a very humiliating sentence.

3. I boycotted a certain veterinarian after she insisted that my dog was allergic to chicken and needed a duck-based hypoallergenic diet. I gave him the duck diet for nearly a year before learning that she mixed his test results with another dog. My dog is severely allergic to duck, and should be eating chicken.

2 and 3 are true. There was indeed a vaginagate scandal. To set the record straight I am not a hormone addict, either.

My lie is 1. There was no such grocer or lawsuit. My father was born very premature and the roof of his mouth wasn't fully formed in the right way. He did have a slight speech impediment because he mumbled and couldn't articulate very well unless he was angry (lol). He didn't speak much in random conversation. He did become a national hero, though! :heart:

I should add that the veterinary mix-up did occur, but it was several years ago and not associated with my current vet!
