"Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America" with Author Karin Wulf

October 15, 2025 at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time

In 18th-century America, genealogy was more than a simple record of family ties—it was a powerful force that shaped society. In Lineage, Karin Wulf delves into an era when individuals, families, and institutions meticulously documented their connections in family records, cultural artifacts, and court documents. Join us for Wulf's presentation about this new history and her discussion with the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, further exploring the vital role of lineage in the colonial America. 

Signed Books: Attendees who purchase the $48 bundled ticket will be mailed a signed (book plated) copy of Lineage (hardcover, $35 value), in addition to gaining access to the virtual program. Book(s) will be shipped Priority Mail throughout the U.S., except in Massachusetts (Media Mail).

Presented by American Ancestors' American Inspiration Author series in partnership with Massachusetts Historical Society.
