Hi,
I've learned so much about this case in a very short period of time
just by reading through all of your posts. I hope to get to know
everyone here better.
Again Hello,

Thanks for the replies.
Kat, that would be Hollywood CA. although I grew up on the east coast. NY. My parents owned a house in Rhode Island where I spent many summers
and also many trips to Fall River without even knowing the house I must have passed a hundred times.
1bigsteve. Yes there are many movie stars here
I'll see if I can Fed-Ex a few out to you.

Again Hello,
Kevin,
Nice to meet you. I know some people named Sabo in my home state of Pennsylvania. I too have fled the northeast for the sunshine of California. Which is a laugh, since the Bay Area has had almost daily rain since mid-February.

Welcome to the Forum, Kevin! I too am another transplanted east coaster that now lives in sunny (not recently) southern California, always enjoy my trips north to Hollywood and LA.

No, I didn't see that was coming, thank you for the heads-up, Kat! I watched the first episode of Most Haunted's American trip where they will be staying at the Queen Mary for 3 weeks as their home base. I guess they will travel around California visiting haunted sites while there? AH!!!! What if my wish comes true and they do travel across America visiting places and decide to visit the Lizzie B&B???!!! I would so love to hear Derek Acorah's take on the vibes in that house! It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it, we might possibly get some sort of answers then.

Yes Stef and I are hoping they go to the B&B but wouldn't they have done that by now?
The Queen Mary was one of their best shows so far.
They did get the manifestation of pool water in/near the changing area which is one of the ships' most outstanding phenomemon.

Hello Sabo! Welcome to the Board.
Like you, I have visited Fall River and spent a frustrating hour or so looking for 92 Second Street and not finding it. On consulting a map on the wall of City Hall, I eventually found that I had passed it several times and in fact it was opposite the bus station! I believe that the building is now the Lizzie Borden museum. What a treat for all of us afiocinados!

It's not exactly a museum, but it is a historical site of sorts. It is a Bed & Breakfast now. Many members of the forum have stayed there, along with visiting Oak Grove, the Swansea home, and the courthouse in New Bedford. Fall River and her surrounding cities are quite delightful.
Welcome to the forum Jan !

Thank you Monique. The next time I'm in the States a friend and I are going to visit the museum. I bet the previous owner (who I believe operated a printing plant behind the building) got absolutely fed up of visitors asking him about the case. Incidentally, my friend studied the case as part of her American History course and sent me an article called "She didn't do it even if she did", which outlined the reasons Lizzie was found not guilty. Basically it was because no male jury could believe that a genteel Victorian lady of her class was capable of violence, although women of the so-called lower classes were deemed capable. I don't think the American public will ever forget this case.

You also may want to consider the Fall River Historical Society. Plus, we have quite a few members who are 'locals' and can give the best advice for visiting the area.
