4/8 says promotion is over?
NEW QUESTION TODAY BUT WHAT’S THE ANSWER? i MISSED THE SHOW
Which historical event did Scott Foley’s five-times-great-grandfather witness while he was a member of General George Washington’s Life Guard?
I think the answer is Revolutionary War
Beginning of the French Revolution went through for me.
Hmmm, they seem to put up a new question before the show is aired in my area. (New question on Friday but the show is on for me on Sunday.) I am guessing at the answer and my entry still seems to be going through …
What was the occupation of Molly Ringwald’s three-times-great-grandfather in the village of Höganäs?
Haven’t seen the show, but a google search says Mine Laborer.
Yes, it was a mine worker
