Kinnected Roots is a storytelling podcast that explores family history, genealogy, and the rich historical threads that connect us all—especially through the lens of West Virginia. While centered on real stories from the host’s own ancestry, the podcast also delves into non-family figures and events that shaped their lives. From personal legacies to regional lore, Kinnected Roots blends biography, local history, and curiosity to bring the past to life.
