I love how years ago the local newspapers would list the coming and goings of people. Which distant cousins were coming for a visit, who was getting engaged, and even who had a bridal shower. I would expect to see this in small town newspapers, but I did not expect to see this in the Montreal Gazette.
Some believe the Palin name originated in Wales, and some believe it was from Normandy. What we are sure of is that more than four hundred years ago, our ancestors lived in Cheshire. Many of our branches have moved throughout the United Kingdom and some have emigrated to Canada, United States, Africa and Australia. Join us, as we explore the lives of our ancestors and how they were part of this wonderful tapestry of the Palin Family Tree!

1233 Days
Every person has a story to tell. Some stories are remarkable and some are horrifying. Last month I wrote about a man who was thought dead during WWI but was alive in a Prisoner of War Camp in Germany. In honour of Remembrance Day, I am writing about another man who was also held captive in a Prisoner of War Camp in WWII.
