Pages

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.

Old Handmade Christmas Cards made by my Grandfather


The Christmas card shows a picture of my mother, born 1919.  I like the garland spelling the word MOM with my mother's photo inside.

There are now two children in the family, see in upper window.  I would have loved to have seen 1923, 1924 and 1925, but they weren't in the collection.

This card is also a birth announcement for another child.  The sisters are shown with their brother.  My grandfather probably had the cards completed before the birth and wrote in the name and date.

My grandfather absolutely loved England, and went many times.


This was made in 1921, three years after they married.

I found an article that appeared in The Hartford Courant, Dec. 14, 1976. "The Peck Memorial Library (Berlin, CT) announced Monday the opening of a new exhibit of more than 40 Christmas cards. The exhibit, titled 'Christmas From the Bishops,' will feature cards sent by the Earle K. Bishops of Kensington, CT from 1921 to 1976." 


Note: I have about 30 in his collection. Each card was posted in December 2009.

Westover of Pennsylvania -- Surname Saturday

For some reason, I've always had more Westover names in my tree than any other surname. The count is just a little over 1,000. Therefore, when people do google searches, they often reach my blog. Almost two years, Darlene from Pennsylvania told me about a manuscript her mother-in-law did of the Westovers from Pennsylvania. Since I had no information on them, she sent me the booklet. I have finally completed entering the data and wanted to share it. I did very little research, so if this is your line, I will let you determine what is correct.

The report begins with Oliver who was born in Massachusetts and died in Pennsylvania, he was my 2nd cousin, 6 times removed.
