Sarah Shugar: And the Inheritance

Go back in time when the people who lived in the United States’ most recent territory were getting settled. See how times were in the 1880s as these Alaska northerners were living in the years that followed the Civil War. Enjoy the way the families were then, since their way wasn’t much different than the people of today as they worked hard to make a living, and get along with others in the community. Robert K.
