Family history and genealogy research on both my ancestors & my ex-husband's ancestors, with personal memories, family photographs, old maps, and more. Ancestors from Northern Ireland, Northern England, Midlands England, Germany, and the Netherlands: all immigrants to North America, from very early 1600s onwards. Pilgrims to Palatines, finding my roots is a big adventure!

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY - Isaac Charles LEWIS
Gravestone of my kids' greatgrandfather (on their father's side), in Mountain View Cemetery, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
This LEWIS family started in Ontario, moved to Manitoba, then to British Columbia by 1911.
Love the clue of his birthplace. Bath, ON, was settled by United Empire Loyalists from the States, although I have yet to discover if there is a UEL ancestor in this family. Rumour says, yes, but no details to date.

Welcome!
Family, friends, and others - I hope you enjoy these pages about our ancestors and their lives. Genealogy has become somewhat of an obsession, more than a hobby, and definitely a wonderful mystery to dig into and discover. Enjoy my writing, and contact me at celia.winky at gmail dot com if you have anything to add to the stories. ... Celia Lewis
