Recast is transcriptions of births, marriages, divorces, and deaths that were reported in the weekly publication Variety between January 1918 and December 1919. This was a turbulent time in world history: the Spanish Flu Epidemic and the end of the First World War. There are over 240 entries for deaths from the flu in this publication, and a majority are for persons below the age of 40, who often did not have direct descendants (children). A generation of entertainers, gone.

​
The Chicago Stones
Like many family histories, this story began with a man's acquisition of land; that land purchased in 1835 would fund three generations. Take a romp through one hundred years of Stone and Yager history, with their lifestyle on full display in colorful scandal!
Includes transcriptions of original records, pre- and post-1871 Chicago fire records and discussions, a Register style of the Yager genealogy, and recommended listening.
