Oral Histories

The Video History Series is dedicated to recording histories of Acworth residents as part of an overall effort to document the city's history. Dr. Thomas Scott, Professor Emeritus of History at Kennesaw State University, is graciously donating his time and expertise to the project. Jake Keller, a professional videographer, is engaged by the foundation to digitally record and edit the interviews and provide the foundation with both full length and highlight versions to disseminate to the public. If you have suggestions for subjects of future interviews, please let us know. 


If you would like to donate funding towards the creation of a video or sponsor a complete video interview session, please select "Donate" on Support Page or contact us at saveacworthhistory@gmail.com
