RE: Collecting Oral Histories of 1918 in 2018

in #history7 years ago

Not sure if this is what you are talking about, but here goes: If I were to research the address where my great-grandparents lived in 1918 - somewhere on Willows Street in SW Philadelphia - and digitally "visit" the same house on Google Street View, I could record and share stories passed down to me? Imagine how this, if done 100 or 1000 times, could invigorate our collective understanding of place.
