This presentation tells the story of the Pack Horse Library initiative, a little known program of the Roosevelt Administration's WPA.

As genealogists, we spend a lot of time tracking down the life stories of others. It’s time to write your own story! In our first memoir session, we’ll split the time between writing “sprints” and sharing memories. Prompts will be given and homework will be assigned for the next session (19 October 2021). Bring a laptop or notebook and pencil.
You may know that George “Lefty” Tyler grew up in Derry, played for the Derry Athletic Association and was recruited to the Boston Braves. You may also know he was part of the 1914 Miracle Braves pitching rotation. But what else do you know about the life of this star athlete? Join us as we take a genealogical approach to find out more about George “Lefty” Tyler’s life.
