"What we have heard and known… we will tell the next generation." It's been a privilege working with so many people who take this admonition seriously! Thank you to all those who have written articles or submitted photos and to the volunteers at the Archive office who get the mail-outs done. Special thanks to assistant editors and writers Helen Rose Pauls and Robert Martens, and to Hugo and Jean Friesen for faithful proof reading.

Roots and Branches now appears 3 times a year: December, April and August. In each publication we try to present a variety of articles on local history, research methods, family histories, book reviews, MHSBC events and letters from the past.

Please keep the letters, stories, articles and photos coming!

Louise Price, editor
