I love history and genealogical research. Once I collected thousands of 19th Century newspapers and started reading through them for family connections I found that the actual news stories were simply too good to resist. I began including them along with the genealogical data in my earlier books. I finally decided to publish a book entirely based on the lives, struggles and tragedies of these ordinary people. Thus the genesis for Poor Mrs. Godwin and Other Unfortunates.

Poor Mrs. Godwin and Other Unfortunates
The stories of ordinary citizens during the 19th Century and the struggles, turmoil and tragedy they faced.
