Description:
 ...Tales from the Ancient Documents Collection.

Dutchess County Historian, Will Tatum, will share stories on white collar crime in eighteenth-century Dutchess County gleaned from the court records in the County’s Ancient Documents Collection. From business deals gone bad to slavery, bastardy, and the occasional murder investigation, these cases shed light on daily life in old Dutchess and reveal parallels with life in the county today.
