In this episode of Research Like a Pro Genealogy podcast, Diana and Nicole continue their series on researching in England without parish records. They are joined by Jessica Morgan. Jessica is a genealogist specializing in British family research.  The hosts and Jessica discuss using probate records to find family members, focusing on the differences between pre- and post-1858 records. They explain the court hierarchy in England and how to determine which court would have handled your ancestor's will. The episode also covers death duties as a substitute for lost wills.  Next, Jessica explores court records as a genealogical resource. She details the types of records available from Quarter Sessions, Chancery Proceedings, and Assize Courts. She explains the types of cases each court handled and provides guidance on accessing these records. The episode concludes with a discussion of Manor Rolls as a valuable resource for tracing family lines before 1538, particularly for those whose ancestors did not have significant wealth or property. Jessica explains the different types of Manor Courts and provides tips on accessing and reading Manor Rolls, including resources for understanding Latin terms and secretary hand.  Listeners will learn how to navigate the complexities of English court records to extend their family trees.  This summary was generated by Google Gemini.

In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole and Diana interview Jessica Morgan, an Accredited Genealogist specializing in U.K. research. They discuss strategies for researching English ancestry when traditional parish records of baptisms, marriages, and burials are unavailable. Jessica highlights the value of parish chest records, which contain documents like settlement papers, bastardy bonds, and apprenticeship indentures. These records can reveal an ancestor's origins, family relationships, and even their occupation. The hosts and guest also explore the significance of tax records in English genealogical research. They discuss various types of taxes, including Hearth and Window taxes, the Marriage Duty Act, Land Tax, and Poll Taxes. These records can provide valuable information about an ancestor's residence, property ownership, and social status, offering crucial clues for further research. Listeners will learn how to navigate alternative record sources when parish records are missing. They will gain a deeper understanding of the wealth of information that can be gleaned from parish chest records and tax records, and they will discover effective strategies for tracing their English ancestors.  This summary was generated by Google Gemini.

Jessica Morgan & Christopher Carter joined me to talk about their indie horror film "Night of the Harvest," a slasher type Halloween film that plays around with the traditional tropes and roles within that type of story. They shared deep reflections on their approach to storytelling, horror, and what it's like to step into the mindset of the movie's characters.  Follow their work at www.carterinkfilms.com This is the Halloween episode of The Broken Brain for 2024.

We're diving into the darkness this week on BEHIND THE LENS and getting the jump on some Halloween horror thanks to three terrific filmmakers, CHRIS CARTER, JESSICA MORGAN, and RJ DANIEL HANNA, and some scary new films from each of them, NIGHT OF THE HARVEST and SUCCUBUS. One of the great elements of today's conversations is the discussions with Chris and Daniel about cinematography, lighting, and color with their respective films. Very insightful hearing their approaches to visual grammar as it pertains to each film. Kicking things off are writer/director/DP CHRIS CARTER and writer/director/actor JESSICA MORGAN talking about their new film, NIGHT OF THE HARVEST, "a spine-chilling thriller where masks and costumes aren't just for fun—they're part of a terrifying ritual. Prepare for a journey into the heart of fear, where every shadow hides an unknown threat and each twist reveals the mysteries behind the Harvest." Then, writer/director RJ DANIEL HANNA joins us discussing his chilling new film, SUCCUBUS, the tale of "Eddie, a young father going through a marital separation who joins a dating app, and matches with a beautiful but mysterious young woman…whose powers of seduction and manipulation entangle him in a mystery more horrifying than he could have ever imagined… [As] his curiosity gets the better of him, and he finds himself getting sucked into her world even as his own life falls apart, the powers of this mysterious young woman grow, finally revealing her harrowing true nature." http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Disney news plus reviews of The Substance, Transformers One, The Critic, A Mistake, Never Let Go and the Blazing Saddles 50th Anniversary release. And an interview with Night of the Harvest co-directors Chris Carter and Jessica Morgan. Hilarity ensues.

Welcome to episode three of three in my royal fiction series, which we started with Katharine McGee, continued with Linda Keir, and are finishing with Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan, authors of both The Royal We and The Heir Affair. I would argue that The Royal We released in 2015—actually kickstarted this trend of royal fiction that continues and continues today. In this book—which is inspired by the love story of Prince William and Kate Middleton—we meet an American girl, Bex Porter, who meets a dreamy guy named Nick while at Oxford, and finds herself accidentally in love with, casually, the heir to the British throne. Interestingly, the American aspect was introduced by Heather and Jessica in 2015, before Prince Harry ever met Meghan Markle the next year, in 2016. In 2020, the follow up to The Royal We, The Heir Affair, was released, and in this book, we find (slight spoiler alert here) Bex adjusting to royal life, including a scandalous secret that turned her wedding to Nick into a nightmare, leaving them in self-imposed exile. Trying so hard to not give spoilers here. In this book we get to know the character of Freddie more, and—you know what, you just need to add these two books to your summer beach bag, and you just need to read the books. Because if I keep going, I'm going to give plot points away, and I don't want to do that. I am so thrilled to have had the chance to chat with the dynamic Heather and Jessica, who, in addition to writing these two books, are the creators of the unparalleled celebrity fashion blog, Go Fug Yourself, and are known as such as The Fug Girls. In addition to The Royal We and The Heir Affair, they've also written two young adult novels, Spoiled and Messy, and have written everywhere from New York Magazine to Vanity Fair to Cosmopolitan, The New York Times, The Washington Post, W, Glamour, and more. One thing we actively and intentionally avoid in this conversation is the real-life happenings of the royal family—so if you're looking for dish and juice on that, you'll be disappointed—but you won't be disappointed in this chat, which is fantastic. In this conversation, we prefer to stay in the fictional world of Bex and Nick and Freddie, and I think you'll find that you'll enjoy it there with us. These two women are phenomenal.   The Royal We by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan The Heir Affair by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan

We take a tour of Tate Britain's new exhibition, Now You See Us, featuring more than 100 women artists who worked between the 16th and 20th centuries, with Tabitha Barber, its curator. The Dia Art Foundation has reached its half century and its director, Jessica Morgan, tells us how it has changed in that time, and especially how it has radically expanded the range of artists it shows and collects. We also discuss the new commission at Dia Beacon by Steve McQueen. And this episode's Work of the Week is one of the few record-breaking paintings in a relatively middling auction week in New York: Martin Wong's Portrait of Mikey Piñero at Ridge Street and Stanton (1985), which sold for more than $1.6m (with fees) on Tuesday evening at Christie's. Barry Blinderman, who sold the work in 1985 from his Semaphore gallery in New York, tells us more about the painting and the extraordinary circumstances of its making.Now You See Us: Women Artists in Britain 1520-1920, Tate Britain, London, until 13 October.Steve McQueen: Bass, Dia Beacon, until 12 May 2025.

Some of her fondest childhood memories involve long afternoons at the library and then reading late into the night. More than ten years ago, she began journaling about the books she read and turned that passion into writing about books. Her first forays were as a guest reviewer on a friend's blog, but she soon realized she wanted to be reviewing and talking about books on a blog of her own. From there, Novel Visits was born. That was in 2016 and, though the learning curve was steep, she loves being a part of the book community. Novel Visits focuses on new novel reviews (print and audio), previews of upcoming releases, and musings on all things bookish.

Today I welcome Jessica Morgan of Carnsight Communications as we discuss how to utilise clever PR to reach the right audience for your commercial projects. Finding customers and garnering support or building a brand needs focus and concerted effort. While marketing allows for more targeted approaches, PR offers a broader reach. It's crucial not to be too narrow in targeting specific publications and to be proactive and reactive in PR efforts. We also delve into the key elements for a successful press release, such as providing relevant and current news, offering strong opinions and originality, and considering timing. Jessica shares why Media engagement is important, even to the small developer and it is essential to emphasize the significance of clear positioning, diverse commentary, consistent communication, swift responses, and active involvement on social media. To begin a successful PR campaign, having a well-defined objective and understanding the target audience are crucial. Moreover, finding a distinctive angle, fostering relationships with journalists, and upholding a consistent brand image are key considerations. We also explore the advantages of PR for small businesses, the relevance of press releases, and the significance of branding and a unique selling point.

Actor Aimee Lou Wood is best known for her role in Netflix's Sex Education. Her character - also called Aimee - was at the heart of some of the most iconic storylines that came out of the first three seasons of the show. Now she's taking to the stage as Sally Bowles in Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club in London's West End. She talks about performing in the show and her recent BAFTA Rising Star Award nomination. The former police officer, Wayne Couzens, who raped and murdered Sarah Everard two years ago, has admitted three counts of indecent exposure. Now academics and criminologists are calling for a change in the way indecent exposure is seen – saying we need to stop the perception of it as a so-called ‘nuisance offence' and take it more seriously. Jennifer Grant from the University of Portsmouth and the BBC's Home Affairs correspondent Dominic Casciani discuss allegations against Wayne Couzens that go back to 2015. A new Netflix series from Executive Producer Jada Pinkett-Smith tells the stories of African Queens. The first focuses on Queen Njinga, a powerful woman who led Ndongo, modern day Angola, through the slave trade and invasions by the Portuguese. One of the writers and former British High Commissioner to Mozambique, Nne Nne Iwuji-Eme explains why it's so important to hear her story. Woman's Hour is in the process of putting together our Power List for 2023 - this year focussed on finding 30 of the most powerful women in sport. But what about the power of sport itself? Hayley Compton and Jessica Morgan who say sport got them through very difficult times in their lives explain why. Coleen Greenwood spent almost two and a half years in a relationship with a man she knew as James Scott. He said he was a divorced firefighter who wanted to marry and go into business with her - but it was all based on a lie. Her story is the subject of a new BBC podcast series Love-Bombed with Vicki Pattison. Coleen talks about the impact the relationship had on her. She is joined by Chris Bentham, who investigated the case. Nell Mescal is a singer songwriter who writes Indie Folk songs. She's a rising star whose featured in Rolling Stone Magazine and has been named as an artist to watch by NME. She performs her single ‘Graduating' live in the studio.

The musical Sylvia has just opened at the Old Vic celebrating the life of Sylvia Pankhurst – feminist, activist, pacifist, socialist, rebel who was at the heart of the Suffragette movement, with her sister Christabel and mother Emmeline. Actor, singer and musical theatre performer Sharon Rose who plays this lesser-known Pankhurst discusses her role. Woman's Hour is in the process of putting together our Power List for 2023 - this year focussed on finding 30 of the most powerful women in sport. But what about the power of sport itself? Hayley Compton and Jessica Morgan who say sport got them through very difficult times in their lives explain why. What is Europe doing to tackle the issue of femicide? Since the start of 2023, there has been a wave of news coverage in Europe on violence against women, and specifically, femicide, the act of killing a woman because she is a woman. The Spanish government has called its second emergency meeting of domestic violence experts after the murder of six women and a young girl since the start of January. And in France, 18 women have been murdered this year, according to the organisation ‘Femicide by a partner or ex partner'. This is despite both countries having introduced measures to fight against gender based violence. Mélina Huet, a journalist at the French news channel LCI and director of the documentary on femicides ‘Protect the Living, Honour the Dead' and Susana Pavlou, the director of the Mediterranean Institute of Gender Studies join Anita to discuss.

Abby's got notes on Firefly Lane, My Unorthodox Life, and the premiere date for Daisy Jones & the Six. Then she's joined by her friends Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan of Go Fug Yourself to dive into their shared lifetime love of soap operas and melodrama in general. In what they've now decided will be the first of a series (complete with a cliffhanger!), they get into the ways ‘80s and ‘90s daytime and nighttime soaps shaped the culture—and their minds. Think Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, All My Children, One Life to Live, Dallas, Dynasty, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, and more.

While Sarah takes one more week away, we are thrilled that Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan of GoFugYourself.com can join us once again.... As Brooke's life rapidly unravels, no one cares except her mortal enemy Alison, who encourages Billy to help Brooke out financially (he does; she refuses) before finding Brooke living in her car and ordering her to come live with Alison instead. Brooke repays this kindness exactly the way you'd expect: by acting entitled to it and taking advantage of her restored proximity to mess with Billy. Peter is now scheming against Bobby on two fronts: in addition to trying to mooch information out of Alycia by dating her, he also hires Sydney for a side gig in sexspionage. Michael and Kimberly find themselves drawn back together by an extremely unlikely plot device. Jane complicates her relationship with Jo by setting up her new design studio in Jake's garage (???), depriving Jo of a parking space for her car. And Matt continues bristling at the restrictions that come with dating a closeted actor. Dive in to our podcast on "No Lifegard On Duty"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Your co-hosts weren't feeling that psyched about any of this week's TV premieres -- sorry, Judy Justice on IMDbTV -- so we invited our Patreon supporters to pitch and then vote on TV episodes for us to discuss under the rubric Fall Forcenings. Thus we are going in on L.A. Law's "Good To The Last Drop" with guest Adam Grosswirth, who originally watched it as a pre-teen and...learned a lot about hysterectomies and their possible side effects? Around The Dial takes us through Insecure, Queens, The Big Leap, The Good Wife, and The Good Fight. Adam makes the case for Max Headroom's series premiere, "Blipverts," to be inducted into The Canon. Then after an extra-spooky Winner and Loser, it's on to a Game Time that doesn't overstay its welcome. Look out: it's a new episode of Extra Hot Great! GUESTS

Sarah is out this week spending time with family, so we welcome Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan -- authors, fashion bloggers, and longtime Melrose Place fans -- as our guest co-hosts.... It's pretty wild how Sydney's choice to abandon a partially paralyzed woman on the beach and leave her at the mercy of the tides has really sent everyone in their orbit into a tizz! Sydney herself is worried that people think she purposely tried to kill Jane and desperately doing damage control. Michael, still not convinced by any of Sydney's stories, contrives a scheme to force Kimberly to tell him the truth about the incident. And Jake is just as attracted to the partially incapacitated Jane as Michael was. But fortunately, Jane is determined never to be as helpless as she was on that beach: she doubles her PT sessions, and even pitches in at the studio to help Richard and his designs land a deal with a distributor! Now that she's on top of the world, what's left for Jane but to start making terrible decisions?! Bobby's father Vincent gets sick of waiting for Bobby to avenge Jack's death and orders Bobby back to Miami. Not only doesn't Bobby comply, but he pre-emptively hustles Amanda out of town in case Vincent hires anyone else to do the job. At the same time, Peter is still working Alycia for information on Bobby's business...or just for the usual sexy reasons. Brooke begs Alison for help getting Billy to talk to her, trading on their temporary step-relationship. And seeing Alan at work is the first time it's ever occurred to Matt that Alan might be closeted for the sake of his career. Will Matt hang with Alan's choice, or strike something up with the hospital's new gay social worker? Don't try to get out of our podcast on "The Bobby Trap"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Abby's friends Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan, creators of Go Fug Yourself and authors of books like "The Royal We" and "The Heir Affair", join her this week to talk all things red carpet fashion—including the Emmys, The Met Gala, the most recent New York Fashion Week, and what a Golden Globes-less awards season might look like. Plus, a dash of Ted Lasso, Grey's Anatomy, Bennifer, and sports. Oh, and Abby's got notes on the Netflix show Midnight Mass and the trailer for the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie, Licorice Pizza.

Guest Jessica Morgan teaches us everything she knows about sustainable fashion, where to start, and how to incorporate it into your life. Guest Insta: @jessmorgnn podcast instagram: @themodishpodcast host insta: @delia_lucatero

When you're lucky enough to have The Fug Girls on your show, it only makes sense that you quiz your players on iconic movie fashions. So that's exactly what we did on this week's episode when GoFugYourself.com's Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan joined Ralph Breaks the Internet co-writer Pamela Ribon. After the fashion show, they'll pick out their favorite stars from teen movies from the last 30 years, and parse them out from what characters played by those actors have been up to in the intervening years.

One half of the GFY brain trust, Heather Cocks, came back to discuss Amazon's Project Runway with a big-budget twist: Making The Cut. As much as we love Naomi Campbell's sugar-free approach to, well, life, the panel agreed that Making The Cut has some structural problems (too long; dumb Tim 'n' Heidi "friend dates"), and too tight a focus on NOT being a sewing competition. Will any of us keep watching? You'll find out before we decide whether Emily Is Not A Crackpot for wanting period shows to air period commercials. We'll go Around The Dial with Call The Midwife content warning, the return of One Day At A Time, Barry, homemade Lego Masters spinoffs, Top Chef, and a Better Call Saul sound drop; later, we'll feel relieved that the Sherlock episode we all THOUGHT Erica presented as a Canon contender is actually for the Nonac. Kate McKinnon won, celebrity quarantine-busters lost, and Game Time stretched those family ties (sha la la laaaaa). Tick tock: it's an all-new Extra Hot Great. GUESTS
