Saturday Night Genealogy Fun- What Did Genea-Santa Bring You and Your Family?

It's Saturday Night again - 

time for some more Genealogy Fun!!


Here is your assignment, should you decide to accept it (you ARE reading this, so I assume that you really want to play along - cue the Mission Impossible music!):

1)  What genea-gift did Genea-Santa bring you and/or your family this Christmas season?

2)  Tell us in a comment to this blog post, in your own blog post, in a Facebook post, and be sure to leave a link to your post.


Genea-Santa brought me books, again, this season. One of my 2021 goals is to explore more about ancestral lineage healing. These are the books that I received.

Healing Family Patterns: Ancestral Lineage Healing for Personal Growth
Healing Ancestral Karma: Free Yourself from Unhealthy Family Patterns
It Didn’t Start With You
Family Secrets 


I haven't read them yet, and when I do, I will write a book review for them.

Thanks, Genea-Santa! 😊

At the beginning of each chapter, there is a section of the entire map in which part of it will be "zoomed in" on specific areas of Vestal.
