Tip Toe To the Cellar

One of the fun things about genealogy research is looking through boxes stored away for years and finding things you have never seen or have forgotten. Mom and I spent a day looking through her house and reviewing photo albumns. She opened some boxes in her basement and found some things I didn't remember. One interesting item was a detailed scrap book Grandma Vogel made about Dad's U.S. Army days. It contains photos, telegrams and letters home and even the grades he received in his classes in Georgia.

This is a shot of Jaquelyn Pilot Vogel's dancing days.

My research continues to focus on the French-Canadian side of the family. More photos of the Pilot and Emond side will follow.
