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.

Ogunquit Memorial Library, Ogunquit, Maine (History and Genealogy Section)

Ogunquit, Maine

I have been by this charming library many times, but because of limited parking and way too many cars and walkers on the street, we never stopped in. Recently, we left extra early for a coastal trip, and this was our first stop, were there at 10 and got one of their few parking spaces.

One librarian was working and was very helpful in answering my questions. They even have WiFi, which surprised me. Although small and filled with books, there are no future plans to enlarge, even though they have the space.
