Welcome to my family history blog. Finding more about my family's history is very rewarding as well as being interesting and educational.
I created this blog to share my thoughts, experiences, tips and resources in my search for my ancestors' history and maybe, help you in your research as well. I am particularly interested in the history of Upper Canada and the Loyalist period in history.

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Tricks and Treats

I remember one year we went to a Halloween Party, I can't recall where it was, but my mom made all of our costumes. At the time that meant six costumes, she made my cousin's too. I was Raggedy Ann and my older brother was Raggedy Andy, my cousin was a flower and my younger sister was Peter Pan and my younger brother was an owl. After five detailed costumes, my mother was running short on time so she made a Pikinini costume for my youngest sister, just a toddler, which was just a flowered pillow case with slits for the head and arms and a rope belt, not very PC by today's standards but in the '60's it was okay. My brother, who was an owl won a prize for his costume, and Peter Pan won a prize as well.
