Episode 253 - A Quarter Million Miles Of New England Stone Walls… Why?! / Maureen Taylor On Photo Fishing At Antique Shows

Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society. The guys share an email sent by a listener who was excited to learn something new about two Scottish ancestors because of a recent guest's exhaustive study. David then begins "Family Histoire News" with the amazing story of a man who located his birth mother. She then reached out to the birth father, her former high school boy friend. The old spark relit. And you won't believe who legally married them! Then, David talks about the recent find of a stone jar in Italy, under the remains of an old theater. What was in it will astound you! Next, David talks about the relationship between families' stuff and the families themselves. Don't let your treasures get thrown away by the next generation. David's blogger spotlight this week shines on Emmy Jolly from the UK, who, by the way, is happy to take photographs of where your ancestors were from. Go to EmmaJolly.co.uk/blog. In Segment 2, Fisher visits with Professor Robert Thorson of the University of Connecticut. Dr. Thorson is an expert on the history of and in those old New England stone walls. Why are they there deep in the woods? How old are they? Who put them there? Professor "Thor" will explain the mysteries of those iconic stone walls of New England. Then, Fisher catches up with Photo Detective Maureen Taylor who recently scored some amazing 19th century photographs at what is billed as the World's Largest Antique Show that happens a few times a year in a small town in Massachusetts. Hear what she says may be waiting for you in your area antique stores or show. Next, Fisher visits with Team Red from Relative Race on BYUtv. With week one in the rear view mirrow, Austen and Mike share their feelings about their first meeting with a family member. And, as always, Tom Perry, the Preservation Authority talks with Fisher about places to leave your precious family or historic items in the event there was no one in the family willing to treasure them. Which would you prefer? Archive or dumpster?! Fisher and Tom have some ideas. That's all this week on Extreme Genes, America's Family History Show.
