In this episode, we dive into the complex lives of an everyday American family during and after the Civil War. Helen and Frank Dewey were a happily married couple who survive the war, have ten beautiful children, and stay together through all of life’s hardships. But when Frank passes away, Helen has to grapple with her late husband’s secretive past.

Through Helen, we learn of the hardships that women endured during times of war and poverty in 19th-century America, and we find that even the smallest lies can shape the legacies we leave behind.
