1870 - a good year for Prussians (not so good for the French). Gladstone was in office and passed the Married Women's Property Act which enabled married women to legally own their wages and to inherit money. A good year; a good number of calories to have consumed!
If I haven't lost any pounds this week I shall sulk!

1870 - also the year of the Education Act that created School Boards and thus introduced universal education for small English people.
