"That’s what I love about the Douglas Oral History Project: it connects people with their memories and with the way life was,” said Dr. Cecelia "Ceci" Lewis, co-founder of the Douglas Oral History Project with Dr. Beth Henson and Ginny Jordan.

The Douglas Oral History Project aims to keep those stories from being forgotten by capturing the oral history of residents and their ancestors on how they contributed to the area in the early twentieth century.
