This hands-on writing workshop will show you how to transform genealogical research into a vivid, well-structured narrative that captures the heart of a historical moment. Using real-world examples from The Early County Massacre, you’ll learn how to identify a pivotal family or community event, verify and balance diverse sources, and navigate conflicting accounts. Through guided exercises, you’ll practice humanizing historical figures, weaving personal stories into broader social contexts, and enhancing your work with timelines, maps, and images. Whether documenting acts of injustice, landmark court cases, or community milestones, you’ll leave with the skills and strategies to craft an engaging, accurate account that preserves both the facts and the spirit of your history.
