I am a new user of Wikipedia having just signed up in June of 2010, so please cut me some slack if I make any errors.

My primary interests are as follows:

American Folklore and Folk Practices (especially Braucherei or "Pow Wow", hoodoo/rootwork and Appalachian folk practices)
Fifing
American history (particularly the Colonial and Revolutionary War time periods)
Folk practices of the British Isles and Ireland
Religious movements of the "Second Great Awakening" and the "Burned Over District" such as spiritualism, Mormonism, the Oneida Community, Millerites
The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing (Shakers)
Radical Pietism of the 18th and early 19th century - particularly those communities found in Pennsylvania
