‘Posted in the Past’ by Helen Baggott
January 9 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
This event is hosted online via Zoom by Wiltshire Family History Society.
A soldier killed in the First World War, the man who helped keep the doors to Great Ormond Street Hospital open for more than 30 years and a 10 year old servant working for a laundress in 19th century Bath are all revealed by messages sent using the first real social media phenomenon of the 20th century. Drawing on the research from her collection of more than 300 postcards Helen will share some of
the stories in an illustrated talk.
