What were the houses like in the 1900s?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Farm houses in the early 1800's, in the North East at least, had second stories (sleeping area's) that had much lower ceiling's then the first floor, and all bedroom doors faced the stairs. This was because the heating system, wood stove and or fire places where on the first floor. The heat would rise and to keep the sleeping area's as warm through the night as possible the ceiling were lower to keep the warm air close to the person. Also the Farm houses were built in sections. These sections were built on as the family grew.

The homes had no electricity and using oil lamp's sparingly, due to the cost of oil. Most were made out of wood, some were made using stone and or mud. Most had a small basement, that was used for hanging meat and for storing canning in cool dark area's

What does the blue on the Finland flag mean?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

what does the blue and yellow stand for on the swedeish flag I dont think anyone knows for certain but there are many theories. According to the mythology, the Swedish 12th century king Eric the Holy saw a yellow cross in the sky as he landed in Finland during the First Swedish Crusade in 1157. Seeing this as a sign from God he adopted the yellow cross against a blue background as his banner. It has also been suggested that the Swedish flag might have been a resistance flag against the Danish flag, which is red with a white cross, and which has been known since 1219. According to this theory, the Swedish flag was created during the reign of King Charles Knutsson, who also introduced the Coat of arms of Sweden in 1442. The national coat of arms is a combination of King Albert of Mecklenburg's coat of arms of 1364 and King Magnus Birgersson's coat of arms of 1275, and is blue divided quarterly by a golden cross pattée. Other historians claim that the Swedish flag was blue with a white cross before 1420, and became blue with a golden cross only during the early reign of King Gustaf Vasa, who successfully liberated Sweden from the temporary tyranny of the Danish King Christian II in 1521.also this is top secret really any teachers dosent even know this so we give it to ypu for trying wiki answers thanks

How do you find ancestors for free?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sites for genealogical searches include:

-- Family Search, sponsored by the Church of LDS (don't have to be an LDS member; they keep up with everybody's ancestors) ...it's at

-- Cyndi's List at the related link. Some of the links at Cyndi's List are free; some are not.

-- Cyndi's List has the SSDI - the Social Security Death Index. It's free, and if your ancestor was issued a social security number (and has died), you can find out interesting things like place and date of birth, place and date of death, &tc.

-- Pipl - it's supposed to be a live-person search engine of the deep web, but I've found lots of info on ancestors, too.

-- Ancestry.com - (but Ancestry.com, among others, may offer info for a fee that you can get elsewhere for free...)

How can you find out if someone famous is related to you?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If your parents and other relatives are unable to tell you whether you are related to someone famous (and most of us are not related to someone famous), the only way for you to find out whether you are is to do the research. Find out as many of your ancestors as you can, figure out who their descendants are, who they married, etc., and then figure out if any of those people are famous.

Unless you are very, very lucky, you will not find a listing on the internet of famous people you are related to - unless, perhaps, you yourself are famous.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The English language has no specific term for two unrelated people who have the same aunt.

Two unrelated people, A and B, can have the same aunt if the brother of A's parent is married to the sister of B's parent. The couple are aunt and uncle to both A and B, but A and B are not related to each other.
