Publisher's Synopsis
In January, 2010, the author, with her brother and sister, moved their mother into an assisted-living apartment. They cleaned out her house and placed her household items in storage. The author was elected to gather and organize the family memorabilia and papers pertaining to their genealogy. She became interested in researching the life and times of her ancestors and even discovered an unknown branch of the family. An old bread board, given to her by her maternal grandmother, became the inspiration for this fictional story of a bread board passed down through seven generations of women, with their stories. Some customs and events from her own family are woven into the narrative.
