Description

The Genealogy Anthology Project (GAP) celebrates the extraordinary lives of ordinary people. Inside are tales of survivors, of determined individuals with indomitable wills, of unfortunate children, of searchers, of story tellers, of family men, of the anguished, of the courageous, and of the fiercely proud. These special people live together, break bread at mealtime, worship their gods, marry, raise families, grow old, and pass away. When their immediate kin and friends also enter that great beyond, often these stories are lost forever. The Genealogy Anthology Project attempts, in some small way, to rectify these losses. GAP is a series of ongoing writings for publication by Pocol Press. Our main focus is on family narratives. In essence, this material serves as a culmination of painstaking hours spent researching, compiling, interviewing, and recording information about loved ones.
