When Americans sang the popular tune about how “the Yanks are coming,” World War I had been raging in Europe for three years. Even before 1917, the Great War transformed American lives and communities. This workshop will support you in your exploration of family or community stories from the World War I era. Whether you are already researching or just getting started, Jayne Gordon, Former Director of Education, Massachusetts Historical Society, will help you pose the right questions and find the right documents and resources to uncover your family or community narrative. This program is free thanks to the generous sponsorship of the Ruby W. and LaVon P. Linn Foundation.

Space is limited; registration is required by November 5.
