ETYMOLOGY:
Middle English genealogie, from Old French, from Late Latin genelogia, from Greek genelogi : gene, family; see gen- in Indo-European roots + -logi,-logy
While in Wisconsin, I got to spend a little time re-connecting with some family history:
identifying the family tree file I also got to see the house my grandma and grandpa lived in for as long as I could remember. |
It has been refurbished and is a beautiful example of so many victorian homes in this area made with the yellow brick from the local factory. |
the white house on the right, now a separate residence, was originally the carriage house |
the vintage fence was found in the basement by the new owners and re-installed |
