Listen and you can't change my mind on this. If the circumstances had been different in thier life they would of ended up together. They both had flaws and made mistakes. But damn the love they had for one another was biblical my guys. Honestly the more I learn the more my heart shatters for these two.

Because I am a nerd currently fixated on Gentleman Jack / Anne Lister who got frustrated when trying to find a transcribed journal entry, I’ve created a very basic search engine. It has entries for 1834-01 to 1838-10 with more on the way.

She appears to have delicate health & talks of thinking much, & looks a look of melancholy.

There are soooo many beautiful things circulating around the Gentleman Jack fandom born out of pure passion for the series, our history etc but nothing catches my eye more than our Ann(e)s in a kiss.
It really doesn’t take much to be seen, and yet it’s still something we have to fight tooth and nail for. Representation Matters.
No matter how hard to try to erase us, pretend we don’t exist, we are still here and we will fight for our place. And if not for ourselves, for our next generation. Not just for Gentleman Jack but for all wlw series/movies. Visual representation is so important!

Hi, love your blog! In the master-post section, there is a tag for information regarding Ann Walker's appearance and where the "pretty flaxen hair" description came from. I found it at the end of the January 1, 1837, entry as part of a hilarious mishap involving fire and Ann Walker's nightcap!
hello!! Thank you so much for your message, I transcribed that day because I was super curious:
Sunday 1, January 1837 > No kiss – fine morning sun shining and F 33 1/2° at 9 25/.. at which hour breakfast – A- [Adney] did her French till 10 – sat down stairs talking till 10 ¼ – then read the Halifax Guardian of yesterday and thought about letter to Messrs Gray – at 11 40/.. in 40 minutes – (25 prayers – 15 sermons) A- [Adney] and I had the servants all assembled in the [East] parlour and read prayers and one of Prley's sermons (very good) on new year’s day – then A- [Adney] had luncheon – I finished reading the Halifax Guardian of yesterday till 1 ½ – wrote my letter to Messrs Gray and my note to Mr Greenwood – Stopt a moment at the school in passing – at church at 2 25/.. five minutes before the time – Mr Fenton did all the duty – preached 24 minutes from Ecclesiaste iii.15 – good sermon – as far as I heard of it before dropping asleep – about 25 minutes at Cliff Hill – Mr Fenton arrived as we stopt at the door, and we left him there – have made [this] house very comfortable – laid out £500 – the present minister wanted to make a radical bp. [bishop] of Ripon – the abp. [archbishop] of York said if they did, he would not give up his money – but if they would appoint Longley (which they did) or a gentleman not very far from here (one [vicar] – Mr Musgrove was surely the person alluded to) he (the abp. [archbishop]) would give up the money – home at 5 ¼ – wrote the last 9 lines – sealed and put into the bag my letter to “Messrs Gray solicitors York” and my note to “[Thomas] Greenwood Esquire Bank Field” my letter to say I would rather have the whole sum on one security and by them to let me know as immediately as possible if I could have fifteen thousands from the [?] Prestons by the end of April to keep the papers for the present – shall be glad to hear the answer about the field – A- [Adney] much obliged by the information [procured] for her by Mr Watson – the note to ask Greenwood to call here as immediately as may suit his convenience, and to make his own day and hour – dinner at 6 ½ – coffee upstairs as usual – A- [Adney] read French – and afterwards read aloud from the London paper of tonight – I ½ asleep on the sofa till after 10 – fine day – hard frost and very cold – F 28° now at 10 25/.. p.m. – went to undress about 10 40/.. – about 11 heard a very strange noise of bustle and screaming in a confused undertone – found Cookson and Oddy with A- [Adney] who had set her night-cap on fire, and thrown it blazing on the hearth-rug, instead, as she intended, into the fire-place – everybody frightened but luckily no further harm done than singeing a little of A-’s [Adney] pretty flaxen hair – thankful that she was safe – sat up talking till near 12.

“about 11 heard a very strange noise of bustle and screaming in a confused undertone – found Cookson and Oddy with A- [Adney] who had set her night-cap on fire, and thrown it blazing on the hearth-rug, instead, as she intended, into the fire-place – everybody frightened but luckily no further harm done than singeing a little of A-’s [Adney] pretty flaxen hair – thankful that she was safe – sat up talking till near 12.” [SH:7/ML/E/19/0180]
This is hilarious and also frightening – love how Anne’s like “thank god SHE was safe” awwww <3

Friday 22 June 1821 [Halifax]
I owe a good deal to this journal. By unburdening my mind on paper I feel, as it were, in some degree to get rid of it; it seems made over to a friend that hears it patiently, keeps it faithfully, and by never forgetting anything, is always ready to compare the past & present and thus to cheer & edify the future.

THE SECRET DIARIES OF MISS ANNE LISTER (2010) dir. James Kent Anne Lister is a young unmarried woman living in 19th-century Yorkshire with her aunt and uncle. The one thing she wants from life is to have someone to love and to share her life with, but the person she has in mind, her lover Mariana Belcombe, marries a rich widower and breaks off their affair. Depressed, Anne devotes her time to studying, while longing takes over her heart. A year after Mariana's wedding, Anne begins to think about finding another lover. (link in title)
