Haunted by her aunt Elsie’s death in 1960, niece Doris Green searches for family skeletons and finds genealogical clues to how Elsie died at a northern Wisconsin tavern. The author seeks an answer to a murder-vs.-suicide debate through a mash-up of journalistic inquiry, family history research, and alternative ways of knowing such as astrology and hypnosis. Stay tuned for the rest of the story...
Wow I hardly know where to begin. I am your cousin. Cynthia K. Hileman ( Watson). I grew up in Aurora, IL. My grandfather, Carl was your father’s brother and we visited you many times when I was young. I presently live in Chicago, have 3 adult children, 7 grandchildren, one sweet dog, am single, a retired Lutheran pastor. I have worked for 20 years as Bishop Associate with the local Lutheran bishop here in Chicago. I work 10 hours a week, mostly retired.
I’ve been doing some genealogy research trying to find out info about my birth father. And that has lead me to this email.
