The Texas Black Matriarch Archive: A Digital Novella in Eight Chapters
Project brief: The Texas Black Matriarch Archive, by Dr. kYmberly Keeton, is a genealogical living archive—documented in real time—as part of a Capstone Project for the National Genealogical Society (2025–2026). Structured as a digital novella and documentary in eight chapters, the project documents and bears witness to the maternal lineage of Sherrell, Lampkin, and Keeton in Texas through archival research, memory work, and autoethnographic reflection. This space serves as both the project’s repository and an active site of preservation, interpretation, and continued creation.
