Research projects

I plan to use this space to showcase the genealogy and local history projects I have worked on:

Wednesfield Burial Ground (2024)
Working alongside Wednesfield History Society’s Reseach Team, somehow, I found myself project managing the Wednesfield Burial Ground Project. In this role I have undertaken both desk and ground research on the site, have recorded oral histories and have undertaken community, funder and stakeholder engagement. I have also been responsible for branding, marketing, exhibition materials, and website design and planning. Learn more about the Wednesfield Burial Ground Project here.

Gothic Villa, Wednesfield Heath (2024)
A prominent building with an intriguing name once stood in the grounds of Holy Trinity Church, but other than on old maps, there appeared to be no trace…

The Willis Children, Wednesfield Heath (2019)
Letters from my second great-grandmother, Emma Willis, to her daughter in Ohio give a fascinating insight into the struggles of a working class family at the end of the 19th century.
