[Stargate] Greetings from your new Stargate Historian

[katherine watson]

Greetings to the Barony of Stargate, Their Excellancies - Ihon and Isabeau, Officers and Populace,
 
I would like to introduce myself.
 
My name is Caitilin inghean Ronain ui Chellaigh (pronounced kaht-leen een-yen Ronain ee Chel-ee), basically translated Caitilin, daughter of Ronan of the O' Kellys.
 
Whoo! Long name. Easier just to call me Caitilin, Cat for short. 
 
Who am I ?
 
Society wise, I am a returning player originally from Raven's Fort ( 1980-1982). I returned to the SCA in April of last year. 
I hope not only to be a historian, but also a herald and artisan in Stargate and Ansteorra.
 
Mundanely, I am a Library Paraprofessional with 30+ (cumulative) years experience in Libraries and Library Services. Most recently, I have worked for almost 17 years in Interlibrary Loans in Academic and Corporate Libraries. I have also been a Knowledge specialist and researcher with 40+ years in researching multiple subjects, including History, Linguistics, Heraldry, Genealogy, Geography and Onomastics.
 
With all that experience and knowledge, I hope to use it to be your Barony Historian. If you have any stories of Stargate, Ansteorra, or the Society as a whole, I would love to have them in emails, written or if possible in recorded form. Also, if you have literature, event documentation, etc., I would love to have to have that too. When you go to events, bring back your observations and photos, etc. of our Stargate members and the fun you had enjoying the time together.
 
Well, that is all for now. Thank you for your time and consideration.
 
Sincerely, Yours in Service,
 
Caitilin
