Pages

The Life From The Roots blog topics have changed several times since I began this blog in 2009. I initially wrote only about the family history I had been working on for 20 years. Years later, I was into visiting gardens, historical homes, churches, libraries that had genealogical collections, historical societies, war memorials, and travel/tourism places. I also enjoy posting autographs and photos of famous people I've met or have seen.

Along with my New England roots, other areas include New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada.

Please check out the labels on the right side for topics (please note, they need work). Below the labels and pageviews is a listing of my top nine posts, according to Google. Four of them pertain to Lowell, MA. These posts change often because they are based on what people are reading.

Surname Saturday -- LAY (From Connecticut to Vermont to Michigan)

My Lay line below begins with the 4th generation, my first three generations of Robert Lays are all in Saybrook, Middlesex Co., Connecticut.  Those first three generations may be seen at this current link (done in 2015). Some cemetery stones have already been posted to my Tombstone Tuesday blog. My direct lines are in All Caps.

This post is the most popular of all 1,375 posts I've written.

UPDATE: December, 2017:  I decided to show a few pages of the manuscript which was the major source for my information. It is over 100 pages, written in 1912 and is on microfilm located at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah. I made copies of about 60 pages about eight years ago.
