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.

Curtis Memorial Library, Brunswick, Maine (Genealogy Section)

I love how part of the old Library is incorporated into the new.
This is a beautiful Library, with a nautical theme, lots of paintings and models of boats.




A huge section of books pertaining to the Brunswick area. Above are white cemetery books my husband's uncle and cousin published.



The Librarian brought me into a room that is being made into a genealogy/history room. Their selection of books was spread over three different areas in the Library. Check out their Technology Room 10 years ago. I have a feeling this room has been updated by now.
