The Westcott Story: The Enduring Spirit of an American Family Spanning 400 Years

Thursday, June 26, 2025

5:30 p.m.

Voices of Pensacola, 117 E. Government Street

Please join us for an author talk and book signing on Thursday, June 26 in the Voices of Pensacola as we invite local author Christine Broderick Emmanuel to share insights about The Westcott Story: The Enduring Spirit of an American Family Spanning 400 Years.

Released on Jan 7, 2025, The Westcott Story builds upon rigorous genealogical research published by family historians in 1886, 1907, 1932, and 1991. Tracing her maternal lineage across 14 generations, Emmanuel provides a rare glimpse of lived experiences and unfolding circumstances that have shaped our nation’s course since 1630. She weaves European and American history into the storyline while following the migratory path of the Westcotts and kin from England, France, and Germany to six of the original Thirteen Colonies, as well as the Territory of Florida, Minnesota, and California.

The Westcott Story is available online at Amazon.com and at Bodacious Bookstore and Café. See https://www.ChristineBEmmanuel.com for more detailed information about the two-volume book.
