Speaker Series: How To Research WWII Veterans
December 13, 2024 @ 1:00 pm, ending 2:30 pm
Free with standard museum admission
Autumn Hendrickson, who has spent the last four and a half years working on a project to tell the stories of the men and women from Reading & North Reading, Massachusetts that served in World War II, comes to the American Heritage Museum to talk about her recent trip to the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, MO.
She’ll take the time to talk about her research process and how other people can research their own WWII veteran of interest while incorporating some stories of men and women she’s researched.
