City Square Park, Charlestown, MA
This is the very first site we investigated. One of the most significant colonial archeological dig sites in the United States.
Our investigation began at the historic site originally home to Governor John Winthrop, who settled here from England via Salem in 1630. The location later transformed into The Three Cranes Tavern—a bustling hub that operated for 140 years and served as the epicenter for revolutionary intelligence leading up to the Battle of Bunker Hill.
Seeking out residual energy—the emotional imprint of sounds, images, or feelings left behind by intense historical events—I sat directly among the ancient foundation stones. With my tape recorder running quietly, I waited for a sign from the past. I was not disappointed. The very first spirit communication to pierce the silence came from the young enslaved girls who once worked within the walls of the tavern.

The Echoes of Revolution: Field Hospitals & Fallen Heroes
Here, the past came alive through powerful spirit communications and energetic impressions. I uncovered the location of a crucial military field hospital utilized right before the battle, situated near the historic First Church of Charlestown.
This ground holds deep ties to the leadership of the American Revolution:
Dr. Isaac Foster: Lived just one block away. He was personally appointed by George Washington as the temporary Director of the Hospital Department for the Continental Army.
Major General Dr. Joseph Warren: A second spirit breakthrough revealed glimpses of Dr. Warren addressing the townspeople. Shortly after giving this speech, he became the ultimate fallen hero of the Battle of Bunker Hi
" One thing I’m very clear about is that the spirits I’ve encountered throughout this project want their stories to be told, and they wish us to be more thorough and accurate when we talk about the history of Charlestown. I also believe, for them, by telling their story– it’s a chance for healing. When a spirit takes their truth to the grave, this aspect of their soul’s journey in this lifetime is incomplete. Giving spirits a voice so they can express what they witnessed can be healing for them and for others who hear their story. After all, it was not omnipotent all-knowing gods who wrote history. Mere mortal men and women wrote about history to the best of their imperfect ability to be all-inclusive. There are many more stories that need telling.”
