#3: This week I talked with Cheri Hudson Passey about family history in her life, which started playing a role when she was about 10 years old.  She shares with us the ancestor she looked back on to gain strength when she faced a difficult time in her life.  We also talk about choices her ancestors made that weren’t positive and the project she started to help the descendants of persons who were enslaved find their ancestors.
