Join us for the January Family Tree Study Club meeting, at which Julie Johnson will be tutoring us in the subject of bigamy and the social circumstances that led to our ancestors making this risky decision.
Join us for an intriguing webinar that delves into the hidden lives of bigamists in the early 20th century. Discover how the high costs and social stigma of divorce led many individuals to resort to bigamy as a means to escape unhappy marriages and start anew. Through personal stories and historical context, we will explore the complexities and human emotions behind these cases.
Learn about the untold story a couple whose lives were forever changed by the revelation of a secret past. This webinar will provide a unique perspective on the social history of the time and the personal challenges faced by those who lived through it.
