I hope when we have all eaten our Christmas turkey and ham, that we remember Christmases Past and try to imagine some of the Christmas celebrations our ancestors had. In the New Year, hopefully we will learn more about not just the names and dates, but how they lived and how it affects our lives today. When you are having dinner with your "oldies" this winter see if they can tell you about their winter pasts and maybe you can write down something about you holidays, so your descendants won't have to search as hard as we have to, to learn about how you lived life and celebrated. Wishing everyone a Joyful and Happy Holiday, a Happy, Safe and Prosperous New Year plus some great 2001 genealogy Gaila Cherry List Owner
