Heroic Moms of the Past

I received this Mother’s Day infographic from FindMyPast.com.

In the spirit of Mother’s Day, findmypast.com took a look at mothers from the past whose selfless acts of love made headlines within the collection of British, US and world newspapers and created this infographic. More than 15,700 individual articles recounted acts of heroism and sacrifice women have made for their families throughout history. From examples of physical strength to mental perseverance, this collection of articles is another reminder of a mother’s enduring love and willingness to do anything for her children. The collection of historical newspapers on findmypast.com is an archive of 120 Million pages of newspapers that cover 300 years of life from across the globe.
