Event Details
How did changes in Victorian-era social etiquette affect the ways in which we mourn our dead? What customs changed from the past and which do we still honor today and why?
Join local historian Sharleen West of the Poquoson Historical Commission as she explores the evolution of mourning practices in 19th century America and here in Poquoson.
