It is always nice to meet new people. Some stay in our lives, and others move on, but were always glad for the memories they all leave.
Audrey J. Homing is leaving our neighborhood Sept. 8 for Queens University in Belfast, Ireland. She chose this as she has relatives there, but she will still be with the Archives in Ireland.
She is originally from Pennsylvania but has lived in Jenkins Hollow and Old Hollow for the past 15 years.
She worked for the Department of Archaeological Research at Colonial Williamsburg and also had a contract with the Shenandoah National Park, where she directed the survey of Rural Mountain Settlements.
She wrote the "Shenandoahs1 Secret History" that was published in the January/February 2000 issue of the "Archaeology Magazine". For those of you who did not read it, it was about Corbin, Nicholson, and Weakley Hollows, before and after the Shenandoah National Park.
She is still associated with Colonial Williamsburg and the Shenandoah Park Service, and will be returning from time to time.
We wish you well, Audrey, and we hope you enjoy your work there.
