Madame Tussaud was buried in Wargrave? – traps for the unwary!
-
Not everything seen in print can be relied upon to be historically accurate. Using examples from research into various local history topics, Peter Delaney of Wargrave Local History Society, will explore some of the coincidences and traps that unwary historians may encounter. The Tussaud grave in Wargrave is just one such.
The aim of the talk is to show how historians can easily fall into traps, and come to misleading conclusions.
