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.

Hough of Massachusetts and Connecticut -- Surname Saturday

This register report is my 130th entry for Surname Saturday. I've decided not to bold my direct lines, but you can see them because they are in All Caps. This early New England family came from England, lived in Massachusetts, and my direct line migrated to Connecticut. As in the past, I'll share my sources, if you want them.

 If you want to look at all my surnames already posted, look on the right side and scroll down to my list of Surnames.
