1:00 pm to 2:00 pm Online Meeting
The Russell-Matson Family and Descendants: An African American Wisconsin Family History
by Carol J. Calvin, MS, ED
The serendipity of viewing a photo album leads to a half century journey of discovery.
Like many African Americans, Carol knew very little about her family history. She began researching her maternal family after viewing a cousin's photo album in Chicago. Her cousin identified her maternal great great grandparents and their children to her. They had settled in southwest Wisconsin and were farmers there. This exciting discovery led Carol on a 45 year genealogical journey to learn more abou her maternal ancestors and to share her findings with her family and community.
