About The Great Greats
The Great Greats is a family-history publication by Will Forrester, hosted on Substack. It explores personal and historical stories through the traces people leave behind, bringing together family connections across places such as Georgia and Ireland. Its subject matter ranges from draft cards to hand-stitched quilts, with photographs, letters, and other surviving records helping to tell each story.
The publication also draws attention to records that nearly disappeared, emphasizing how fragile and valuable the evidence of earlier lives can be. Rather than presenting family history as a list of names and dates, The Great Greats frames it as a collection of individual stories, shaped by documents, images, and objects passed down or preserved over time. Readers can subscribe to follow new writing from Forrester.
Launched about a year ago, the publication offers an ongoing look at the people and materials behind family histories, connecting details from the past into engaging narratives for readers interested in genealogy, archives, and the ways personal histories are remembered
