“Finding Women’s Voices in the Archives” with Jane Wilcox

This program is part of our Winter Speaker Series, and will be presented in-person at SCHS, 32 Washington Ave. Advance tickets are available here, or you may purchase them at the desk when you arrive. Women from the 17th-20th centuries are challenging to uncover, but we may hear their voices in the documents that recorded their lives. With many examples from the speaker’s own New England, New York and Wisconsin family history, learn where to look for womenfolk in letters, diaries and journals, newspapers and various court records.
