Liberty St. Spirits - A Storied Life
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 7 ต.ค. 2021
Nestled in the hills of Northwest Pennsylvania is the sleepy little valley that gave birth to the oil industry.
Walk with me down Liberty Street into history, and into the Gilded Age to hear news stories of the spirited, and sometimes hidden history of the Oil Region. We will walk the streets, built by Pennsylvania crude oil, and into the ghostly Victorian parlor to look at the lives of the men and women who were products of the black gold.
This channel will teach novice genealogists and oil historians about the development in NW Pennsylvania to assist them in telling their own family story, and personal achievements, during that time using historic newspapers. I am available to research the archives for you, or to help guide you on your ancestral journey.
Please reach out to me at libertystreetspirits@gmail.com and let's see what we can find, and tell your family story one video at a time!

The link I refer to is broken, so I removed it. My apologies.
Also, no links in description
You are correct. The link was reported broken, so I removed it. I failed to pin a comment, I will do that now! Thank you
Strange but very interesting reading FYI: Recording equipment or microphone is clipping off syllables. Intended words: "Less glorious . ." What we hear: " ...ess glorious.."
Thats my fault. I am trying to edit on a ipad and its not working out well. My apologies! Once my laptop arrives, I should be back to good.
