  commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Enrico_Fermi_at_the_black... says: "Interestingly, the blackboard contains an error: the equation for the fine-structure constant should read α = e^2 / ℏc {\displaystyle \alpha ={\frac {e^{2}}{\hbar {}c}}} {\displaystyle \alpha ={\frac {e^{2}}{\hbar {}c}}}."

  National Library of Ireland on The Commons I could not agree with you more. There is a Rosa Frederica Grubb (65) in Clogheen in 1911 - possibly this mans Mother? she is described as a "Female Farmer" (not too many of them to the dozen in 1911!!) www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai003292386/

  There could be a connection with Howard Grubb of Irish telescope fame. The Parsons giant telescope is on www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/8392017304/in/photostream/ The firm of Grubb Parsons made telescopes in Newcastle upon Tyne.

  It could be a legal document? A list of evictions planned for the next two years and the likely benefits in shooting rights that might accrue? Nah! I'm just being cynical today!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Constant Thank you for that. And the most recent Ambrose Congreve died just last year, aged 104!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Swordscookie Oh, you are cynical today! Think it definitely was a newspaper...
