Program Description
Event Details
Your local cemetery is a time capsule. Each headstone is plastered with clues about the deceased, those who once walked where you walk now. A simple step through the hallowed gates can bring you on an adventure to explore symbolism, workmanship, and local history. Join Erin E. Moulton as we learn the meaning behind cemetery iconography, abbreviations, epitaphs, and more.
Erin E. Moulton writes books and tracks dead people. As a researcher, slipping into old records and exploring past lives is something she has done for herself and for others for over fourteen years. Erin is a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists, the New Hampshire Historical Society, the New Hampshire Society of Genealogists, and serves on the landmark committee for the Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire. She has written several books, mostly for children. You can find her online at www.erinemoulton.com. Erin will have copies of her books for sale at the event!
