More living history than reenactment
Hi, I do living histories more than reenactments. I have not taken on any sort of personna at this point. I am currently president of our local Auxiliary to the Sons of the Union Veterans and Vice President of the Department of Wisconsin. I have also become actively involved with the Milwaukee Soldiers' Home Foundation that is attempting to save the first National Soldiers' Home. The property in Milwaukee has the largest number of period buildings. The last event I was at was during Irish Fest and I did civil war searches with the rosters on CD and American Civil War Database. It was very popular and we were the busiest booth in the genealogy tent.
If I am at a reenactment, I'm usually tying a quilt.
I'm not sure I will be at the event at Wade House (Greenbush) or not, but am scheduled for an event in October at Trimborn Farm in Greendale, WI. We're deciding whether or not to hold a Sanitary Fair.
In a couple of weeks, I will be giving a presentation on doing searches on civil war soldiers at the Waukesha Civil War Roundtable.
If my photo would only load, I am in one of my outfits.
