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.

Wordless Wednesday -- Canadian Vacation From the Past
Copy of a pamphlet for the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. A Facebook friend posted some recent photos of his trip there and I mentioned staying there many years ago. The price for a room for two in one of the towers, overlooking the St. Lawrence Seaway was about $36. I remembered I had this old pamphlet and decided to post for my Wordless Wednesday. The little black box with the name in the front is a matchbook that I cut out. We took the trip in 1966 and also stayed in Montreal for a few days.
