Great stories aren’t confined to books – our own lives create anecdotes, enough to fill volumes! Sometimes the two collide, like in the case of the 1840’s German language bible recently reunited with its original owners. When such books come in the shop, every effort is made to find the family that would most appreciate owning the item. (Still working on a New England area wedding gift book, inscribed by the minister and witnesses on the day of the ceremony…) We work to reunite people with their own family stories, too! No charge if nothing is found – many family histories we’ve researched tell tales dating to the Revolutionary War! In fact, the most recent project unearthed the fact that ancestors of the researcher and the client had faced each other in a Civil War battle! (No blows were exchanged following the revelation…)
