Was there an organized effort to get pictures of the surviving Hessians up there like Hillard's, in the states, where he went [on his own dime] across the country in the mid 1800s photographing [what he thought were] the last 1/2 dozen veterans? Or was he one of the few who had portraits done? -snip- That's a slightly different study than I've been doing. I don't know how 'regular' it is-- but the Library of Congress' American Memories Collection has more treasures on it than you can see in a year or two of browsing- http://international.loc.gov/ammem/index.html Jim

My both of my kids lived with people they married (eventually) and I was fine with that. My deal is that if you can commit to kids, then you can commit to marriage too. -- I love cooking with wine.

OT - Royal Wedding Janet wrote in news:[email protected]: Actually, the analogy you are m,aking does not hold in bridge. The partner in bridge is the person sitting opposite you with whom you engage in a contract and try to fulfill it. Not all of them. The insurance policies follow very strict guidelines set down between the government and the insurance company. Intestacy provisions vary from province to province. However, in a recent decision, the Alberta courts awarded the estate to a common law spouse ahead of children and other relatives of the deceased. As it happens, in cases of intestate decedents in Ontario, common law spouses do not have the right, but that is why we have wills. -- The Bible! Because all the works of science cannot equal the wisdom of cattle-sacrificing primitives who thought every animal species in the world lived within walking distance of Noah's house.

I was sensitized to this in the 80s, when the family of an AIDS victim swooped down on a couple's home to take all of his belongings, including the couple's dog. A pet would normally provide some comfort after the loss of one's partner. Imagine having even that taken away from you because it was not registered under your name. Further, how many people, especially young ones, think to make a will?

Only the thrill of being unconventional is left, because I take note that cohabitation in Quebec is tantamount to marriage. I note that in the US, cohabitation -- which establishes no rights and no responsibilities for the couple -- is largely correlated with lower economic status and less education. Cohabiting couples also tend to be much younger than married couples.
