Emily Zacharczyk Email and Phone Number

I am the owner of The Historical Housewife blog. I research historical houses and the stories of the women who lived there. I then highlight these stories, along with performing a craft or cooking a recipe that the featured woman was known for. My blog also features other articles relevant to women's history, historic homes, and museums. I also maintain an active Facebook page for The Historical Housewife, as well as an Instagram.
