The purpose of this blog is to gather stories of our families: Coates, Driggs, Miller, Pacholczyk, Kelly and more. Before my grandmother, MG, passed, I always said I would take a cassette recorder to Meadowood and have her record memories. I pictured going through albums of old photos with her and carefully noting down what she had to say about each person, each place. I wish we had done it.
So, this blog.
You are invited to write stories, add pictures, tell secrets, shout, laugh and anything else that comes to mind. There are just a few rules to follow:
- The titles of each blog posting should read like: "Coates - 1920's - Journeys to Paris" or "Miller - 1957 - What Mother Should Have Told Me"
- We should tell the truth, but be kind. This family won't have any trouble with that.
- Have fun.
- If you're a Miller descendant, spell properly and use correct grammar (she might be watching).
- (Someone on the Driggs side, what should Janie's rule be?)
I hope this project might also bring us all a bit closer together, even thought we're scattered all over. If you have other email adrresses, please let me know.
