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.

Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, A Favorite Resort Town

One of my favorite towns. We have been here three times in 15 years, so I'll share a few photos.
Old railroad station used as the visitors' center and rest rooms.






Lake Winnipesaukee.
In season there are several boat tours from Wolfeboro to other towns along the coast. Lake Winnipesaukee, the largest lake in New Hampshire is approximately 21 miles long covering 69 square miles. The driving distance around the lake is 63 miles.
