Marshall, Ellen Thompson-Jennings, Jayme Blenkarn, and Paula Collins stepped up to share the stories of postcards in their family, the topic of ephemera and specifically postcards has been top of mind. * Here’s that memorable holiday event:This month, Kathy has invited Jane Chapman of BJNL’s Genealogy to join her at Kathy’s Corner to talk about her own remarkable “treasure box” collection. Unlike the pieces discussed in December’s program, Jane’s collection was assembled by an ancestor. Her research has helped to piece together the story from the artifacts themselves, a process she’s talked about in a series of posts for her publication: Remember, Thursday’s program is held via Zoom so you will need to register for your personal link. About Kathy StoneKathy has been the “cornerstone” of Projectkin since we were a “Rōnin” gang called “PostPonga.” That was just over three years ago, just after RootsTech 2023. Her commitment to the physical artifacts of family history now inspires our whole community. Learn more about what Kathy is doing today at her own publication:As Projectkin, we’re here to help families tell their stories in any form.
