Deed records, old maps, and city directories tell the story of any old house. Who lived there? You can find out.

I was skeptical at first but you convinced me. Going to give it a shot this week.

When a landmark is threatened, public attention can save it. Documentation, advocacy, and getting on the historic register.

Disagree respectfully. In my experience the opposite is true.

Interviewing the oldest residents before their memories are lost. They remember a town the rest of us never knew.

The markers tell the official story. The interesting history is often the story they left off. Lets fill in the gaps.

Sharing then-and-now photos of local streets. The transformation - and what stayed the same - is fascinating.
