Biographical Storytelling

The Beale family established the St Helena estate. Finding few reliable primary sources, her book This Still Hearth tells the story of Katherine in a mix of fact and fiction.

In this presentation Charlotte will discuss her research, writing and pathway to publication journey and discuss various styles of storytelling to share your family history research.
