by Salisbury University Students (1994)

1 folder (0.1 linear feet)

In a series of interviews of local Eastern Shore residents in 1994, Salisbury University students and teachers collected folk life material. For this project, Nicole Long interviewed her grandmother Madalyn Richardson (Memom) during which she delivered several accounts of personal narratives. These were mostly about death, illness, birth, what women had to endure and how life was like in the rural areas of the Eastern Shore. Tape and photographs enclosed.
