The pictures are good, but there isn't nearly enough info about them. Disappointing.

!This is a casebook of Jamestown and surrounding area. The "Dig"s are interesting to me. On page 64 there is a photo of a tooth of my 13th greatgrandmother. Obviously she was a seamstress as it shows the tailor notches, worn in both sides of a central incisor caused from holding needles and pins between her teeth, as she had an overbite. Remains found on the Jordan's Journey Plantation, where she lived. We were able to attend a special viewing at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum on 27 Sept 2012 which was great.
