Don't forget you can watch on BBC iplayer. Just watched Helen Hunt episode where she discovers a ggg- granny who was a campaigner for women. Explanation on motives of Temperance  Movement changed my opinion.

I have an ancestor called Eliab Box. Various sites insist I mean Elizabeth when I do searches. I've even seen a printed transcription of his baptism record where they've first written Elizabeth but then it was thankfully crossed out!
