Carelton_Young
Carleton Young, shown with letters from the Civil War found in his attic – will be the WJHHS guest speaker on June 28.

From the Famous and Heroic to the Infamous and Notorious.”   This program will be held at the Community Rooms of the Jefferson Hills Borough Building on June 28  at 7:00PM.  About 15 years ago, Young began researching two Civil War soldiers whose letters he discovered in his parents’ attic, resulting in his book, Voices From the Attic.  To find his family connection to the two soldiers, Young conducted extensive research of his own family history. Through that process, he was surprised to discover that he was related in different degrees to many famous people in American history, the same people that he had been teaching about in his own history classes for so many years. He also found that along with the famous and heroic, there were family connections to a few infamous rogues and murderers as well. Society and community members alike, are invited to hear this extraordinary story of Young’s amazing discoveries in his family tree.
