The story of oil production in California began in the late 19th century.
 In 1903, California became the leading oil-producing state in the US, and traded the number one position back-and forth with Oklahoma through the year 1930.
 s of 2012 , California was the nation's third most prolific oil-producing state, behind only Texas and North Dakota.
 In the past century, California’s oil industry grew to become the state’s number one GDP export and one of the most profitable industries in the region.
 The history of oil in the state of California, however, dates back much earlier than the 19th century.
 For thousands of years prior to European settlement in America, Native Americans in the California territory excavated oil seeps.
 By the mid-19th century, American geologists discovered the vast oil reserves in California and began mass drilling in the Western Territory.
 While California’s production of excavated oil increased significantly during the early 20th century, the accelerated drilling resulted in an overproduction of the commodity, and the federal government unsuccessfully made several attempts to regulate the oil market.

Lea Hall is a former country house standing to the northwest of the village of Wimboldsley, Cheshire, England.
 It dates from the early part of the 18th century, and was built for the Lowndes family.

The Lumley inventories are a group of inventories documenting the extensive collections of paintings, books, sculptures, silver and furniture accumulated by John, 1st Baron Lumley (c.1533–1609).
 The most celebrated of these, a manuscript volume which incorporates a considerable amount of heraldic and genealogical material as well as the inventory itself, is sometimes known as the "Red Velvet Book" (from its later binding), and sometimes simply as "the Lumley Inventory".
 It is often dated to 1590, although it is in reality a more complex composite volume including material dating from 1586 to 1595.
 Further inventories were drawn up for purposes of probate on Lord Lumley's death in 1609; and others when parts of the collection were sold in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
Redwork is a form of American embroidery, also called art needlework, that developed in the 19th century and was particularly popular between 1855 and 1925.
 It traditionally uses red thread, chosen because red dyes were the first commercially available colorfast dyes, in the form of Turkey red embroidery floss.
 Redwork designs are composed of simple stitches and were mainly used to decorate household objects in the 19th and 20th centuries, especially quilts. Patterns for individual quilt blocks were sold for a penny in the United States, making them popular and affordable.
 In the 21st century, redwork has seen a resurgence among crafters.
 The main stitch used in redwork is backstitch or outline stitching, formerly known as Kensington stitch.
 Redwork was a common introductory form of embroidery taught to children in the 19th and 20th century.
 Children would make quilts decorated with redwork motifs, with motifs of various sizes prior to approximately 1910 and uniform sizes after that year.
 It was also a way for women with skills in pattern stamping or embroidery to generate their own source of income from the home.
