What did you think of this episode?

How do ghosts speak through their artifacts? As we continue the story of the burial ground in the woods, I'm joined by Dr. Angela Washington, my co-researcher and family. We talk about the chilling death portrait that proved to be our starting point, the coverlet supposedly woven by enslaved women linking the land to the folklore, and the surprising things you find when you search old barns. We're talking to ghosts in this episode, so join us as we talk about the kind of genealogical research that rewrites the family narrative. For photos of the artifacts we discuss in the podcast, subscribe to our You Tube channel and check out the community tab or here on our Patreon page, where a paid subscription will give you access to the full story of the burial ground, plus behind the scenes content, early access, and bonus photos/videos.
