Dear Fellow researchers, Yes, it is a less than happy holiday season for many on this list. This very day, some suffer with grief, or incurable illnesses, or estrangement from family and/or friends. In some cases an unexplainable and unbearable sadness. So after you try to turn those painful matters over to your Higher Power.......let us just reach out and touch one another by sharing the most memorable holiday time that your oldest relative or friend or ever told you about. Try to paint for us, a verbal picture as best you can. Remember to include those four genealogy basics....Who, What, Where & When. TTYL -- Nancy M. Meyers, Lorain OH
