Beyond Names and Dates: The Emotional Language of Photographs, presented by Cheryl Kaiser, Photo Archeologist
Genealogy gives us names, dates, and places—but photographs reveal the people behind the facts. In this presentation, Cheryl Kaiser, The Photo Archaeologist, explores how images and stories carry emotion, memory, and meaning, and why connecting with photographs on a human level deepens our understanding of family history. Participants will be invited to see photographs not just as documentation, but as bridges between generations—enriching both research and legacy.
A community group hosted by the Wayne County Historical Society Main Museum, 810 Main Street, Honesdale, PA
Wayne County Genealogy Group is held on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 4:30pm to 5:30pm.
FREE, and open to the public.
All levels of genealogists, from beginner to advanced, are invited.
