In Their Own Words

Stewart: Heather Lost

|

Stewart: Heather Lost is a genealogy of one family that emigrated from Scotland shortly after 1776. It includes an analysis of the Scots' political and social events that necessitated the move. The book, which contains more than 150 photos, follows the families from their first location in New York to Wisconsin, Illinois, and other parts of the country. It also contains the story of the research and documentation involved to dig out the family information, as well as imagined dialogue about many of the events that are documented, giving a face to people and events long gone.
