The Florida Connection to the Royal Wedding.
If you watched the Royal wedding, as half of the people in the world did today, you might have heard commentators gush about how the wedding was bringing different world's together, but did you know that many of the family of the new princess live in Florida. While all of the Royal fanfare proceeds, it seems that the only change to their daily lives is the constant annoyance of paparazzi. I understand that it has been going on since Meaghan started dating Harry.

In the same article you can see a photo of the uncle, Bishop Dismas, coming out of a Dollar Tree store near Sanford.

You've probably also saw photos of her disabled sister, as well as her father.
Didn't they used to say that charity begins at home?

Centuries ago, a ship sank in the Java Sea off the coast of Indonesia. The wooden hull disintegrated over time, leaving only a treasure trove of cargo. The ship had been carrying thousands of ceramics and luxury goods for trade, and they remained on the ocean floor until the 1980s when the wreck was discovered by fishermen. In the years since, archaeologists have been studying artifacts retrieved from the shipwreck to piece together where the ship was from and when it departed. The equivalent of a "Made in China" label on a piece of pottery helped archaeologists reevaluate when the ship went down and how it fits in with China's history...

Yesterday I posted a picture of a old Eddy and Eddy, chemist bottle find. I have been trying to find out more about that and did learn about a H. W. Eddy of St. Louis, who is undoubtedly one of the two referred to on the bottle. He was mentioned in various trade magazines such as the American Druggist, but I never found any mention of the other Eddy. Below is one I found.
I also found that H. W. Eddy produced a Lemon Extract. The time period seems to be around 1910 - 1939.

Another rainy day on the Treasure Coast. I don't mind at all. I have lots of coins to go through, as well as other research.
The tides are going out well today and tomorrow the surf will be up a little.
Happy hunting,
