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.

Gleason Public Library, Carlisle, Massachusetts (Genealogy Section)

This is another library that had a huge addition. Carlisle, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts is a very small town, but their Library, the Gleason Public Library, was one of my favorites. Librarian spent quite a bit of time with me, and took me to the old section of the Library.

Books about Carlisle. (Above and two photos below.)




The old section of the Library is upstairs, under lock and key. Doesn't appear to be used for anything other than light storage.

 
Lovely woods behind the Library.
