The holidays are officially upon us and it's time for a special gift-giving Product Watch. I have looked far and wide to find items that would be
appropriate for serious genealogists, casual family historians, and those who love them.
Most of the items were selected just for this week and have never been available before, and since quantities are limited, may never be available again.
I admit not all the selections have a family history connection, but, other than you, neither do many people on your gift list. So have a look, and hopefully you'll find
something that will bring a smile to others, and yourself.
Warm wishes,
-Sylvia

Honoring Our Ancestors Honoring Our Ancestors provides 50 stories that hold one common thread—the seemingly endless ways to creatively pay tribute to those who came
before us. One man built a Viking ship and sailed across the Atlantic; another devoted decades to collecting slavery memorabilia. One family passed a diaper down
through four generations, while another staged a scavenger hunt that helped family members get to know their ancestral hometown.
The heartwarming stories found within the pages of Honoring Our Ancestors are just what the family historian has always needed. And it just may be the spark that

Something to Remember Me By: An Illustrated Story for Young and Old A heartwarming, 32-page picture book about love and legacies across generations. It's for children,
grandchildren, mothers, and grandmothers (a great gift book!).
This seemingly simple little story has captured hearts across the country. Says one reviewer, "Something to Remember Me By has the emotion of Love You Forever,
the inspiration of Chicken Soup for the Soul, and the charm of a Norman Rockwell painting."
The richly illustrated book begins as a grandmother and her young granddaughter share happy times filled with big, warm smiles and warm, snuggly hugs. Many visits
