This week's episode Colleen shares a true story about her 3rd great grandparents. Don't let the title scare you away from listening to this episode. It really isn't as bad as it sounds.

Special thanks goes out to the Western Michigan University Archives and Regional History Collections for the court records from this case and the Kalamazoo Gazette for the newspaper articles.
