Georgia-

I work part time at an historic house in Washington, DC, the Decatur House 
Museum.  The curator there, Sarah Tapper, I'm sure would be happy to speak 
to you.  The phone number is 202-842-0920 and ask to speak to Sarah Tapper.  
Tell her you were referred by Trish McDougall (I graduated from the Museum 
Professions program at Seton Hall, too, say hi to Barbara for me!)

Good luck!

Trish
