Project Ideas – Modany

  1. A site to present the oral histories I recorded from the oral history seminar class about a small steel town in western Pennsylvania for the Beaver County Historical Research and Landmarks Foundation (BCHRLF). The site would include the audio from the interviews, photos and profiles of the interviewees, photos of the town today and hopefully photos of the town in its steel heyday.
  2. An analysis of www.quiltindex.org – how it promotes history, provides primary sources and differs from sites that present other primary sources, like documents.
  3. Something with the National Museum of American History and social media outreach.
  4. Help the BCHRLF with a project to put a photo collection of tombstones online to aid with genealogy searches.

  1. You collected oral histories from Beaver County, PA?? It must be a small world because that is where I was born and raised. I would love to hear more about the project if you would be interested in sharing. My school email is lh4522a@student.american.edu.
