The Sacred Harp of New Hamburg: A Search for Family History, Folk Art, and Finding the Right Questions (Issue #1 of 4)
This is not your normal genealogy book with listings of family names, birth and death dates. Rather, it is in the form of a comic book! All of the picture blocks are hand drawn and full color. It follows the story of Dennis who is trying to locate family descendants of his Uncle Aaron. He is having trouble so he learns he has to go about it from a different angle—by writing out his own family tree. In the process he discovers his Groff ancestors are listed in Ezra Eby's book Biographical History of Waterloo Township and that 4 of the 11 children of his great-great-grandparents were in an asylum. Now he has a new mystery to unravel. (20pp. full-color illus. Author, 2023.)
