About the event
In this illustrated talk, Print journalist Jan Kurth reports on three cases from the 1910s to the the 1930s--a double murder, a dubious accident, and a mysterious disappearance. Inspired by their gravestones, Jan uses newspaper accounts, census records, and other historical and genealogical information to uncover the subjects' tragic and all too human stories. NOTE: This is NOT an RSVP event, and is free and open to all.
