About Project

This project is created in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the University of Nebraska - Lincoln Digital History seminar. In addition, the research and this resulting site will represent part of a Master's Option II project about women's clothing on the Overland Trails west.

Project created by Megan Huelman, graduate student of Historic Textiles in the Department of Textiles Clothing and Design, under the supervision of Dr. Douglas Seefeldt, UNL History professor. Trail clothing research supervised by Dr. Barbara Trout.

Acknowledgments - I would like to thank my Digital History classmates, Jason Heppler, Dr. Seefeldt, and those from the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities that gave advice, fixed technical glitches and aided me in creating this digital history project. Special thanks to my Option II Supervisory committee: Dr. Barbara Trout, Dr. Patricia Crews, and Dr. Douglas Seefeldt. Last but not least, thanks to my parents who have always encouraged me in my historical clothing and Western interests.
