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.

Monday Madness -- Jamboree and my "Brick Walls"

Many years ago, at least 13, I prepared the below flyer to be posted to a wall at a Jamboree.  I mailed it, assumed it was posted and never heard from anybody.  No problem with that.  However, I am wondering if this was for the same Jamboree coming up soon.  When I located this gray sheet recently, I began to wonder, and with all my senior moments, I thought somebody could remember for me.

After all these years, only 5 walls have come down.  Those being: ANDERSON, DUMONT, LAY, ROSENBERGER AND SCHRAMBLIN / SCHRAMBLING.
