In February, we present "People and Place: The U.S. Census and Beyond,” a 54-minute show featuring Dr. Kristen Keegan, who has worked in the field of public history for over twenty years. Her illustrated program was presented to the Genealgy Group at the History Center on November 10, 2015. Dr. Keegan discussed historical resources available at libraries, town offices, and online, using examples from her past and present research projects, including an ongoing study of the differences between the final copies of Census records that are found online and the interim drafts that can be found in hard copy. Photo, above right, one of Dr. Keegan's illustrations, using an 1869 map of Manchester and a page from the 1870 census. The TV show is produced by Historical Society volunteers.
