  1. "Misty Blue" is a song written by #BobMontgomery that has been recorded and made commercially successful by several music artists. Although Montgomery wrote the song for a different artist in mind, it was brought first to the attention of #WilmaBurgess in 1966. It was recorded by #EddyArnold the following year, both versions were top five #country hits. A decade later, #blues artist #DorothyMoore released the highest-charting version of the song.

  2. Anne Finch was born #OTD 1631. She was married to Edward Conway, later (in 1755) the 3rd Viscount Conway (English) and 3rd Viscount Killultagh (Irish).

    #AnneConway was never in Ireland but she had Irish connections: she corresponded with philosophers #RobertBoyle and #DorothyMoore (and possibly #LadyRanelagh).

    She also knew #JeremyTaylor. Her husband brought Taylor to Portmore Co. Antrim in 1658, probably to protect him.
