TESTIMONIALS

I just finished reading your great book.  At last an updated and very informational guide book to researching your home in St. Louis County.  I really appreciate the large print, the pictures and story of the Morton family. Your home is so beautiful, the connection made with Holly Burt, and I love the ending with George Barnett in question!   Let me know your findings on this.Congratulations again Kim!  Great book for all of us researchers. ~ Stan Busken

I bought Who’s been sleeping in my bed(room)? as a gift for a relative. While their home is not quite a century home, the original owners apparently had  a colorful story to tell about how the home came to be. I knew it would be fun to research and uncover more stories. Your book provides clear, understandable, step-by-step instructions for research. It enables anyone to become a sleuth! As a writer, I am impressed with your meticulous attention to detail.  It makes a great gift for anyone interested in the history of their St. Louis county home. I will be purchasing more! ~ Anne Milford, co-author How Not to Marry the Wrong Guy
