    3. Wonder what notable events took place the year your grandparents married? The Internet has many websites with timelines and calendars of events. Wikipedia not only lists events for each century but also lists events for each YEAR within each century. Within each year, events are categorized by subject. Subjects highlighted in BLUE have links that lead to information. Subjects highlight in RED are waiting for someone to contribute information (which is how Wikipedia works). For example, here is the website for 1905: 1905 - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1905 I was curious about any notable weather events that took place that year. I clicked on Meteorology: Category: 1905 meteorology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:1905_meteorology which provides a link to the 1905 Hurricane Season. The main page for centuries is: List of centuries - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centuries I know, I know.this website will lead you astray. Have fun!!
