Graphoanalysis

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

Today, we had a wonderful lecture by award-winning Master Graphoanalyst, Irene P. Lambert at the Cyrenius H. Booth Library in Newtown. The lecture was both informative and entertaining as Irene took us in to the world of handwriting analysis. I am also enthusiastic about our sponsoring her for the upcoming NERGC Conference.

As so many of us endeavor to put character and personality into our genealogical research, this investigation into our ancestor’s handwriting can paint a picture of why our ancestors made some of the choices that they did. My great-great grandfather’s handwriting showed some of that determination and quick-thinking that must have been necessary to be a successful entrepeneur in Greenwich.

I think I will be trying to locate more writing samples that can be looked at by Irene in the future.
