Have you ever felt passionate about your research? Some researchers admit to "falling in love" with the subjects they research/write about who they've never met and are long dead. For me, I'm endlessly curious. I want to know more about my research subjects, what motivated them, and what their lives were like. I can't stop at names and dates, nor do I want to.

One day I went to an antique store and bought some letters thinking that I would use them for articles on some social history topic. But then I read those letters.

Join me this Saturday (May 7th) for my FREE webinar presentation for the Southern California Genealogical Society titled: Once Upon a Time at an Antique Store: Telling the Story of Mrs. E.G. Stetson.

The description for this webinar is:

Have you ever found photos or old documents at an antique store? The story behind some love letters I found in an antique store led me on a path I would have never imagined. Come learn more about finding and uncovering a story involving mistresses, divorce, art, the 1893 World’s Fair, and accusations of disloyalty to a nation during World War I. Fact is so much more fascinating than fiction.

This webinar is free but you must pre-register. For more information see the Southern California Genealogical Society blog.
