Send us a textIn this emotionally layered and supernaturally charged episode, we follow two threads of human experience—one tragic, one miraculous—both connected by the iron rails of America’s 19th-century railroads.First, you’ll meet Cynthia Boardman, a woman whose string of nine deceased husbands earned her the whispered nickname The Black Widow of Ohio. Was it tragic coincidence, a morbid curse, or something darker? Her story, drawn from newspaper clippings of the time, will make you question fate, resilience, and reputation.Then, in a haunting tale worthy of the twilight hours, we shift to Engineer Boardman of Garrett, Indiana, who—delirious and dying—somehow tracks the exact real-time movements of his beloved Engine 712 hundreds of miles away. His final breath becomes a prophetic warning that halts a speeding train seconds before it would’ve collided with a wrecked rail line, saving an opera company and nearly 100 passengers. He died a hero… without ever leaving his bed.This episode is not just about ghosts or grief. It’s about connection—to place, to family, to destiny. You’ll also learn the heartbreaking truth behind Edward Augustus Boardman and Catherine Fitzsimmons’ lost children—10 births, with only one child surviving past age 7.Family history is more than names on a tree. It’s the soul-deep stories that change us—stories of love, loss, legacy, and the invisible ties that bind generations. LINKSMemories Are Passed Through DNA From Your Grandparents, Say Scientistshttps://www.buzzworthy.com/memories-dna-grandparents/Sound Credits: Audiomirage & freesound.org : https://freesound.org/people/audiomirage/Support the show🕵️‍♂️ Find me at https://www.FamilyHistoryDrama.com📧 Email me at FamilyHistoryDrama@gmail.com🐦 Tweet the Podcast @FamilyHistoryFMGenerational Healing Through Family HistoryMemories Are Passed Through DNA From Your Grandparents, Say Scientistshttps://www.buzzworthy.com/memories-dna-grandparents/Sound Credits: https://freesound.org INSTAGRAM:@FamilyHistoryDrama@TravisM.Heaton
