    Our students know that divorce is part of life, yet it is not a part of their history courses, it is rarely, if ever mentioned. Divorce has a history all of it's own, and many, many American's lives were shaped by it. In the early 1900s, the ability to obtain a legal divorce was difficult and in some instances, required relocation to a jurisdiction that offered liberal divorce laws. Although Las Vegas, Nevada might be known for quick marriages, it was in Reno, Nevada that legal divorces were available to residents who there for only six weeks. This online exhibit organized by Special Collections at the University of Nevada, Reno, Libraries, presents documents from the city's heyday as the divorce capital of the United States.

  • e du centre historique de la presqu'île disparu quasi intégralement, avec des commentaires audio et/ou des illustrations agrémentant la visite selon le lieu où le visiteur se trouve. La restitution permettra donc de servir de fil conducteur pour présenter des documents d'archive pouvant intéresser le public, gravures, peintures, plans ou autres. Elle permettra également de présenter des articles concernant tel ou tel bâtiment ou secteur de la ville.L'objectif adopté pour la restitution des immeubles disparus est de retrouver à minima le nombre d'étages, d'arcs de boutique et l'emplacement de la porte principale, mais cela n'est pas toujours possible. De vieilles gravures ou même certaines photographies du milieu du 19ème siècle permettent parfois de retrouver l'organisation des fenêtres. La couleur des façades est nécessairement imprécise. Les bâtiments publics ou religieux sont reconstitués à partir de plans et de gravures.Lyon en 1700 est une association régie par la Loi de 1901 et composée de passionnés d'histoire.Tout Lyonnais amateur de recherches en archives ou sur le terrain est bienvenu pour donner un coup de main ! Vous pouvez nous écrire à l'adresse lyonen1700@live.fr. Méthode adoptée à télécharger Méthodologie.pdf Diaporama http://lh5.ggpht.com/-wlkqc48Ln2o/S7BNnpE2ycI/AAAAA

    It looks like these audio clips from the C20th are freely available, however you might have to join the site and as my broadband has almost run out I can't check. At least some are free. Focuses on the US, by the looks of it.
