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.

Jesup Memorial Library / Bar Harbor Library, Bar Harbor, Maine -- Genealogy Section

The Jesup Memorial Library in Bar Harbor, Maine
The front room is the reading area.


Main section of the Library. The patrons are looking at the books on sale. I love the two staircases on each side of the window.

The photos are of past Library directors. The tiny genealogy room is shared with books in large print. Part of the room is shown to the left (below).

The collection is next to the chair. A cozy alcove for one person.
