From Castleblayney to Canada

Description
Spanning centuries and continents, The Charlton-Carden Family Legacy is not your grandmother's dusty genealogy binder. Written by Beatrix Charlton and spotlighting the internationally recognized artist Madison Matti Charlton, this book is a sweeping, soul-baring journey through migration, resilience, reinvention-and the art that threads it all together.
¿ Unearth ancestral roots in Castleblayney, Ireland, where land, blood, and legacy collide.¿ Trace the perilous voyage across oceans, as generations escape famine, war, and erasure.¿ Arrive in Canada, where the family name is reborn through resistance, queerness, and art.
Inside these pages, family history becomes mythology-a tapestry of love, loss, land, letters, and liberation. Woven from archival records, personal letters, and oral histories, Beatrix Charlton resurrects the ghosts of her lineage with reverence and rage, tenderness and triumph.
At its heart, this is a queer intergenerational reckoning. It's about what we inherit, what we shed, and what we choose to pass on.
