Web Notes

A Walkthru with Kathleen Connally
A while back we recommended Kathleen Connally's blog, A Walk Through Durham Township (link in sidebar). A short documentary film about Kathleen Connally and her work by Ajit Prem was recently awarded Best Cinematography in a Documentary at the Kent Film Festival in Connecticut. The film is excellent and gives some insight into why Kathleen's blog is one of the most popular photography blogs on the web. Watch it here.

Early American Industries Association
I am a member of the Early American Industries Association (EAIA). Shortly after posting about Graves Mill, I received the quarterly journal of the EAIA which had the first of a three part series about a merchant miller in Pennsylvania. The article tells the story of a miller's trade in the 18th and 19th century, and the mill's importance to the community and associated trades. If you are interested in the history of American trades and industries, the EAIA is an excellent source. Their website is here.

  1. I've been following "A Walk Through Durham" on and off for a couple of years now - love her images and the stories they tell.
