Perhaps it’s just that as family historians, we’re swimming in stories, but it seems to be especially fun when we can swap angles on shared stories. In our conversation about Australian humanitarian Caroline Chisholm, we were soon talking about how younger adults and children have very little sense of who she was. Older adults who remembered her on the national currency still hold her in high regard. We’ll talk some more about that in our program Thursday/Friday, which will be held on Zoom: If you think you might have a story of interest to the larger Projectkin community, we’d love to hear it. If you’d like to join in with a story to share or learn more about the program, we have a simple form to complete that will put you into the Soapbox queue at Projectkin.org/speakers-queueThis will be an ongoing program, and all subscribers are welcome. Jennifer has the challenging task of matching speakers and time windows, so we ask your patience. We have slots filled now through the middle of 2026.
