Purgatory before our Lord ascended into Heaven

[Sword_Brethren]

People who died in grace before our Lord Ascended into Heaven where in a place called Limbo. What about Purgatory? Is Limbo and Purgatory the same place? Did people go to Purgatory before our Lord’s Ascended into Heaven?

no purgatory and “limb” are not the same.

So what is purgatory:
Catholic.com: Purgatory

and

Cathilc.com : The Roots of Purgatory

and there is an old thread discussing this exact question:
