| Anyone even remotely connected with Asylum Hill can be included here! Mostly, though, it's people who made their homes here, had a job here, or worshipped here. Back in the 19th and early 20th centuries, there was no distinction between those three groups: people lived close to where they worked and where they prayed. Now? Not so much. Also, right now, I mostly deal with dead people. I hope to include living history here as well, but for the time being my focus is on those who have come and gone, whose actions have been largely forgotten and whose occasional controversies are more intriguing than provocative. |
