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.

From Bridge to Bridge, a Wonderful Walk in Lowell, MA, December 27, 2014.

December 27, 2014 1:19 PM 

On this day, this walk from a bank on the Merrimack River took my husband and me from a parking lot next to CAP and the garden to Hunt's Falls Bridge, to under Bridge Street Bridge, and over the Aiken Street Bridge. We walked back to downtown, then realized we hadn't walked over the Bridge Street, so we did. This unusual path is why I put in the times, otherwise, I wouldn't know how long and what we saw first. I hope everybody who can, will do this walk, it's a great way to really see parts of the city. It will be quiet, interesting, a great thing to do with family or friends and it's mostly COVID free.
