This week on the podcast, host Joanna Roche sits down with Jascin Finger, Deputy Director of the Maria Mitchell Association and Curator of the Mitchell House archives and special collections, for a fascinating conversation about cemeteries and the stories they hold. Jascin shares her deep knowledge of stone monuments, how they’re cared for and cleaned, and why cemetery history is such a rich and revealing way to understand a community. Along the way, listeners will hear some surprising and delightful stories pulled from the archives….proving that there’s a lot more life found among the stones than you might expect.
