Investigating Puritan Gravestone Symbols with Jen Bartlau

Tuesday, October 10th 7pm-8:30pm/$18

What is that grinning skull or frowning angel trying to tell us? Why does grave art have to be so creepy? What else can we discover on these 17th & 18th century stones? Join Jen Bartlau as she explores Puritan Gravestone Symbols and discover a greater appreciation for this type of folk-art.

Jen Bartlau is a lifelong Vermonter whose passion is Genealogy. She became a Taphophile (someone who loves cemeteries) when she discovered she was descended from Mary Estey, executed in the Salem Witch Trials. Her favorite way to learn is "History in Person" - visiting the places her ancestors lived and died.
