I've visited graves of old ancestors I never knew but found in our family tree.<br /><br />An old pagan tradition is to leave apples on the grave to sustain them until they cross over. I'm sure they crossed over long ago, but I still leave an apple. On my parents' grave, I leave birdseed, because they loved birds.<br /><br />Maybe you can research some of the people in that book, Christine and find out where they're buried.Hot Ash Romance Novelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10633691302884163101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-295035878432187803.post-51284664858368653582010-10-30T20:40:30.840-04:002010-10-30T20:40:30.840-04:00All the time Ash.

I have thought about my ancestors but I never thought about where it started in my line, but it's amazing to think about!!! My uncle sent me this huge book, big like an old encyclopedia. It's has my Dad's side of the family and pictures of great great grandparents I've never seen, They had their own store in the city of St. Louis, The Sign Said Hundelt Brother's something, I think it was a meat shop, they were butchers. Hundelt is German and that was my Maiden name. I'm in the book, it's something special. But thinking back I wish I could trace back even further, I would love to have up old pictures of all my grandparents like Wynter does. My Mom has all the pictures. I hope to get them all from her in the coming year, she'll be moving that should be a good time to take them off her hands. lol <br /><br />Thanks for the insightful post!! <br /><br />Enjoy your family and Your special Holiday!! <br /><br />~ Hugs, ChristineChristine Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03905795459370394332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-295035878432187803.post-27455077446931329882010-10-30T19:17:34.807-04:002010-10-30T19:17:34.807-04:00I've done so many guest blogs in the last 3 we...I've done so many guest blogs in the last 3 weeks, my head is spinning.<br /><br />But, tomorrow is the last one.
