October Mood

I"m very fortunate to have access to my rich family history.
Believe it or not my uncle has traced my family back to 1200 where we came from Pakistan. Yes, I know it just doesn't seem possible to go back that many generations, but we have.
We then go to England, France and Germany and Ireland.  The history is quite interesting to say the least. This is on my Dad's side of the family.

My Mother's side doesn't go back quite that far, but nevertheless I do have a record back to 1700 or so.
If you have little or no knowledge of you family's past, I would highly encourage you to investigate a bit and dig up some family history.

I enjoy looking at my family's history books and keepsakes to learn a bit more about how they lived during different decades.

It's very satisfying to know about my great, great, great ancestors.

Enjoy caring and sharing days.
Happily,

  1. What a wonderful thing, Jill! We've been able to trace our ancestry back quite far, too, and it's such an important part of my life, as well...in fact, I just wrote about some of mine in my post today!

    So glad others care about this as well...thanks for sharing!
